Print and Publication Design is one area in the field of design that has become my passion. One aspect I really enjoy is being able to creatively work digitally or by hand. Below are some of my favorite projects I have done.
In book design the possibilities are almost endless. There are a few boundaries when you get to the printer stage. It is my favorite thing to design. Having the options of paper type, binding, color, stylesheet, theme, consistency, and layout designing cover to cover and all the little details in between is just pure fun to me. I can't wait to be able to take book design as a class for communication design further into the program.
In a 2D art class I discovered Ink Art. It is a fun challenge and a method that I have used for multiple projects. I've ventured around with ink wash and different color ink projects, but there is something about black and white ink that draws me. I think it may be the stark contrast. These two projects are my favorite because I designed them around the idea of enviornmental change which has become important to me in the last 3 years or so. I believe that everyone can contribute to helping the enviornment. It just depends if one is going to chose to care about it or not.
