20140405 Final Project Review - Style of design

My design for the final project mainly focus on the figure and slogan.
But I took some designers design as example and try to use the elements in their design to integrate into my work.
Apart from Otto Neurath's isotype design, I also do some research on 'Peter Saville' and 'The Designers Republic'.
Peter Saville is an English art director and graphic designer.
From my point of view, he used very strong color and make a comparison on his design, but viewers would not lose the focus because he still keep balance on scene.




















This work, 'History of Modern' is an album cover and really impressive.
He create the great balance on the main figure and the background color he use would not be seen too exaggerate or too eye-catching. 
In fact, it perfectly mix together.

On the other hand, to make the whole work seems to be vividly.
I take 'The Designers Republic' as example when I do my design.
The work that 'The Designers Republic' done is like the main graphic corporate with logo, and also mixed some Japanese anime with a postmodern tendency.
























This is the work I found which is quite remarkable. 
Because the man in poster can catch the spectators attention, big move of man and opposite color is the point that the man could stand out.
Moreover, the color they used in this work is the combination of purple, dark purple and orange. 
I think the use of colors is quite bold but would not be odd for viewers.

I think my work is the mix of this three designers (Otto Neurath &Peter Saville &The Designers Republic).
I used great color contrast, iconic figure and balance screen to create the attention for viewers. 
What is more, I also use slogan to reflect on my graphic design to reveal and emphasize the topic of work.
