Type I Note


(from left to right, top to bottom)
1 & 2 Text in typography
3 Graphic elements in typography
4 & 6 typography and image
5 typography and texture

* From this assignment, I learned that follow reasons are important:
1. scale (some big, others small)
2. interactivity (connection of each element)
3.rhythm(movement)
4. positive/negative space
5. white space

(editorial design)

* The main purpose of editorial design is to help communication. Designers should make type visual and less to read.
* Keep text simple; headline, image and detail can make the design interesting.
*Things to improve in this design: the two articles have the same height and column widths which make unclear to readers. Too balanced, not interesting.
