I really liked the end result of my design I think the slit looked really cool and the plain dust jacket gave the piece a clean feel. Here are a few other people's dust jackets that I thought were really cool also.



I really liked this dust jacket design, I thought it was cool how after taking the band off of the book it revealed a different message that was still relevant 'london designer'.




I thought this design was really cool because it showed a good use of white space and the folds made it interactive for the viewer. Both of these designs show good ideas that mine do not have this will be something I will have to think about for when my final designs come to use.

In today's session with Paul we analysed the difference between posters and dust jackets. We started by listing which formats the two have in common and how they are different. We then individually created dust jackets that showed a chosen word from a variety of words. I started by folding this piece of paper to create a dust jacket, to show the word 'balance'.



I wanted the dust jacket to look 'balanced' so I decided to make all of the folds equal. After this we had to then incorporate text into the design of the dummy book. This is the idea I came up with.



I made this the front cover of my book, and below is the back page of my book. I wanted the slit to make the text noticable but still difficult to read.

Here are a couple others from the group. I thought they were good but I just thought both of their layouts weren't as well thought out as ours.To be fair they probably would argue that our content was quite rushed, because we only really focused on the layout.




Here is my work with my friend sam from VCT earlier on today. We had to produce a timeline on the french designer Cassandre. We decided to produce two parts to it, the top part involving Cassandre's typographic work, and the second part involving his Poster designs. I think it turned out ok considering we only had roughly half hour to produce it.

Here is a piece of work I designed whilst I was bored yesterday. This piece is based on people who are easily persuaded. Also for people who are stupid enough to get involved in something because someone else is involved. This is something I feel really strongly about, because I hate false people and I come across people like this all the time. Plus because I designed this it doesn't meen I'm suppourting drug users this is just something I made.. just to clear that up!?

I took a photograph of the empty escalators at london brigde earlier on because it looked weird to see anyone on them, as usually they are jammed packed with people. I thought it looked pretty cool.



Here are a couple of pages from the book that I am designing for the ICO Design project brief.



Here are a couple photographs I took in my VCT lesson the other day, they were of a previous students work but I really liked how he/she had incorporated the content in with the design.

My one day project from my ICO Tutorial. This is one of the posts from my book on Mark Zuckerberg's posts. I produced the piece in letterpress and cut the pieces up to position them in this way that is why there are so many smudges.

Here are some images I found in the studio on the wall, I found them very interesting and thought that I should take a photo of them.
