Design boards

In week 8  I started to look up the design of my design board 

The first step was to go on Unsplash to find a background picture that I could use. After searching around, I chose this image


After that, I went on photoshop where I opened a new document and chose the default photoshop size paper 


Then the next step was to import the picture I downloaded from Unsplash, and to do that, I clicked on file > open > from computer and chose the image 


After that, I imported my logo which I also used last term and removed the background from a background remover website on google and place it in the bottom right corner of the page 


Then I added the name of my project and the title of the design board in the top left corner by clicking on the "T" on the tool bar and chose the size 24pt for the name of the project and 18pt for the title of the design board. I used the font " Lorem Ipsum" for both of them 



I followed these steps for all the design boards and the following  step will be to add images and text to complete them, which I will do this week

    Why did you choose that image as your background?

    Lorem ipsum is just a 'dummy' font. Which font would better suit your design?

    This is low level.

After completing his studies at Rice University, he joined Frank Lloyd Wright's architectural practice, Taliesin Associated Architects, as an apprentice. He worked closely with Wright on several projects, including the renowned Taliesin West in Arizona (Compton, 2023). Fay Jones E. Fay Jones is famous for his natural architectural style, which includes integrating buildings with the environment, using materials like stone and wood, and incorporating geometric shapes inspired by nature. "Jones ignored architectural trends and instead focused on his own organic aesthetic with materials found in The Ozarks and familiar traditional forms from his home region"(mariathuroczy, 2013) .  One of his design that has inspired me for this project...

Initial ideas

After looking at the project brief and the theme, we generated some visual ideas for our respective projects in order to develop them later. The exercise consisted of folding a sheet of A3 paper and folding it into eight sections. After doing that, we spent two minutes making quick sketches for each section. After sketching these, we discussed with our partners to find out which of our sketches were better and chose ideas to develop further. This time, we used a sheet of A2 paper that we folded into eight sections as well, and we developed our chosen ideas. For my first idea to develop, I chose this sketch because of the feedback I got from my classmates and tutor, and I also thought it had some potential to be developed into something better.

Final major project: Form and function

       The primary function of my project is to allow children to have a good time outside in a safe and sustainable place. Creating spaces that are in harmony with the environment, using eco-friendly materials, and promoting practices that help preserve our natural resources  Sustainable Playground I am creating this playground because in my city (Kitwe, Zambia) we have plenty of parks but people do not use them as they are not user-friendly and as a result they are not safe or maintained. The playground is located near city centre, where the vegetation is dense and will allow the users to have fresh air. Having a sustainable playground in Kitwe will allow the children of the community to engage together in a safe environment.          Reference         s.c, C.I.-S.
