The previous design had a really strong concept, the type choice and colour combinations didn’t inspire me. So I started looking at an exciting way to do typography. I found this typography and loved how active and alive it looked. All the little icon illustrations represent something within the design process, which is really relevant. I was thinking I could use icon illustrations to represent each course like this. Also the simple colour palette highlighted by the use of outlines really grabs your eye. The only thing I would say about this design is that it might be hard to read from a distance because of all the illustrations over the type.
I looked more into icon illustration with figure 3, I really liked the simplicity of the illustrations yet they are so accurate. Also the positioning of it is visually interesting, almost like it has been taken out of a backpack and spread neatly on a table. I believe this type of layout is called knolling. Again the colour palette that has been used is limited to 3 main colours.
Figure 4 once again uses knolling to arrange objects in an interesting manner. I really liked this illustration because it reminded me of what my desk might look like when working on a project. I thought that I could recreate people from different courses’ desks in illustration form to represent the design process of LCA as a whole.
I like the way in which the illustrations are broken up by text in figure 5, leading your eye logically downwards. Also I really liked the use of simple outlines contrasted with coloured shapes making a really graphic effect. The colours used here are really eye catching contrasted against the off white, I think using multiple colours like this would make the poster stand out on a noticeboard.
