Fundamentals of Design by Andre Flores

  This project was pretty similar to the one we’ve done before. But additionally we had to add 6 letters in the bottom of our design. The letter L was from Baskerville, the I from Bodoni and the y is from Helvética as well with the 6 letters. This project was interesting because it had to do with writing any words and creating words at the same time. This project overall was pretty fun and interesting at the same time.

  During this lesson we've learned about different letter fonts and how to first write them by tracing over the letters using light paper. Later we've done a project of drawing 3 letters on a plain paper inside a box and making them unnoticeable. This has been challenging since it took time to draw these types of different fonts on our own. I have chosen different types of letters with different fonts for different reasons. For example, two out of three of these letters that I've used include the letter o in them, so these letters have similarities in them. The capital D and the lower case p teaches me how to correctly write in the fonts of Rockwell. The capital o teaches me how to write in the font of Helvetica. Overall the project of 3 letters has challenge me to write in different fonts.

 Similarity has been a skill that every artists use to make designs amazing. In this skill I have learned to do art in a good way. I'd say that this was a challenge for me but a great learning skill for us designers. Therefore I have enjoyed the skill of similarity. 

  In this project in graphic design. We have learned how to use repetition and the use of grid and structure. This project was challenging because I had to put in perfect circles using a compressor which took me time to learn but had figured it out and used it on the final. This project was a challenge for me but an interesting experience.

 In this project, we've learned how to use repetition in design. There are a lot of different formats of repetition used in graphic design. For example the one enjoyed the most is repetition of space and texture. The most challenging one for me was space since you had to cover most of the space. Furthermore, repetition in graphic design was a fun and very interactive project.

 Detachment Touching  Overlapping Penetration Union Subtraction Intersection Coinciding  The interrelationship of forms was an interesting and challenging experience for me. The most difficult part of my art has been Touching because I had a few ideas but never came up with a decent one. The interesting drawing that I see that I have done well is either Penetration and Intersection. This project has made me reflect on what I can improve on or what I have improved on.
