I love the text lay out and the choice of the typeface it works so well to strike the viewer and emphasis the massages. the kerning between the type is creativly designed too go with the use of white space.
i am so interesting in palying with language to create art which involve typography with no image.





identity brief





This was one of the final stages before the actual finalized logo.
The typeface was sending a wrong signs as its very firm and rigid, the type perhaps could be smaller and the flag larger as its the main thing to reflect the idea that Britain need more blood.

identity breif



My recent Identity brief required that we worked as a group to design a logo of our choice. The final design would be made from a series of 12 locations and events. The locations and events would be based on what we perceived to be interesting and inspirational visually.

here is some logo development that lead to the Final logo

avalanche design companey


as part of the blog tasks i will have to contact design companies that their design style interest me or might be helpful in answering my questions regarding my concerns.

i have emailed avalanche design company regarding my concern in how could a designer tackle a brief from a foreign client.

My email was as follow:

Hi,

I’m an international student in my second year in Graphic Design at Stockport College; a college supported by Liverpool John Moors University. As part of my course I have to research design companies that interest me and I’m especially interested in design companies that deal with foreign clients; more specifically companies that have to deal countries with a different language, and possibly a different alphabet.

I heard about your company through a colleague of mine and she mentioned your company would be dealing with a client from Dubai in a recent project, so I want to take to ask you a few questions to help with my research;

1. What is the first thing that you have to do to tackle the brief?
2. Is it hard to communicate with the client fro example are there any cultural difference that you have to be sensitive towards for some clients?
3. How do you deal with a different language with a different ‘alphabet’?

Thank You

work experience

this is the other poster that i have designed for the same brief. 
the idea came from brain storming the word integration, sound, different opinions and discussion between people which usually vary from pleasant to argument for that i choose to create an image of the sound vibration overlapping to bring the idea of 'integration' 
  
i choose the gray coz it stand between black and white which emphasize 'the dilemma' which is what the talk about. 


i choose Helvitica to be my typeface as its simple and has the same design character of the designed image.
