// Graphic Design 1- Logo Designs/




Objective:
-- Design three separate logos for the same word using three separate treatments. Design a logo using the word "Model Citizen" one for a) a young conservatives group, b) a hobbyist magazine and c) a fashion organization. The final logo is contained in the box and the remainder were semi-final choices as well.

a) For the young conservatives, the lower caps and the avant-garde typeface is to display a younger, modern feeling while maintaining a conservative and patriotic structure through the colors. The three red dots represent unity and community amogst the group.

b) For the hobbyist magazine, the final logo chosen was the word "Model Citizen" on wheels. The wheels create an ambiguity, letting the logo portray a car, train, bicycle, plane, etc. The logo can speak to any hobbyist's interest in any of the hobbyist fields.

c) The fashion organization logo is to represent the formula for the theory of relativity, "E=mc squared". 'E' being for energy, this organization is supposed to represent just that; that fashion is energetic and relative.

/Typography 1- Music Concert Magazine Spread//





Objective:
---Design a concert magazine spread for an assigned magazine (in this case, PRINT). The spread is one third of the concert project series. Previous to this assignment, we had to first design a postcard, a poster, and then a spread in a magazine for the same given concert. This article is meant to be viewed as a spread (as in, the two pages are meant to be seen side by side). The title is supposed to read "Almost Acoustic Festival". The two pages viewed side by side are to play off negative and positive space.

//Typography 1 - Logo Design for an Organization/




Objective:
---Design a logo for a children's peace organization that also says a story. The circular logo represents the eternal comfort and safety. The colors blue and white are colors of loyalty and peace as well. The colorful blocks on the right hand side are the building blocks and the promise of a foundation and a bright future. The stroke breaking through the circle is to show the break through of endless possibilities for the children.
