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

  1. 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.

He spent his childhood in the rural Ozark Mountains, where he gained love for nature and the environment, which had an impact on his architectural designs later in life. 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.

Ideas Development - The Object lesson

 For this task, we continued developing the initials idea we worked on last week to make them stronger. To do that we chose objects to help us expand our Ideas. The first step was to observe the object and answer questions such as "what does it make me think of" "does it have texture" " how can I adapt it to my initial idea". Then the second step was to write down all the associations with the object.  I chose two objects for this exercise which were a ceramic house and an old piece of wood.  The ceramic house displayed a visually textured yet smooth surface, embellished with vivid colours that produced a unique splashing effect. In contrast, the weathered piece of wood, aged and covered in a layer of sand, exhibited the enduring marks of time. I wrote down what these two objects made me think of and tried to develop my ideas based on them.
