Color Poster Variations

December 6th, 2006

Color New Akron Art Museum 1Color New Akron Art Museum 2 Just a quick post to showcase the 2 single color variations on the new Akron Art Musuem poster project.

New Akron Art Museum Poster Design 2In the style of Willi Kunz, I tried to incorporate repetition and harmony. Building upon Coop Himmelb(l)au’s architectural structure I enchanced the vertical grid pattern. This is the last major variation before the final design for the new Akron Art Musuem poster series.

The New Akron Art Museum Poster V1Nearing the end of the semester, I am posting the last few designs for Typogography I. The focus is to create a poster for the new Akron Art Museum while following specific criteria. This poster required a black and white image and partial field reversal.

Taking Chances

Akron Art Museum Diagonal PosterYet another poster for the new Akron Art Museum. I know some won’t like this design, but I wanted to push the envelope with some diagonal text and block highlighting. I know the text shade is close to the block background shade, but that is a purposeful choice. A sense of space is given by the drastic diagonals in the background.

Logo ideas
These are some variations on an logo for freelance web design work. I used a highly saturated pallete and small gradients hoping to create an energetic look. I am not convinced on the electrical elements. I may try a version simply with the 7 sided star in the center and no effects on it.

By the way, if you happen to check this… Happy Birthday Mom! I hope you have a great evening out with Sarah and Dad and a great Thanksgiving tomorrow.
