Simple digital versions




Above - favourite outcome






I was really pleasantly surprised that I liked the outcomes of my layout sketches. The grids are really successful - I feel like they create a nice harmonious balance between blank space and type.

I captioned my favourite outcome - I wasn't actually planning on keeping the grid visual for the digital developments, but here it is really strong. I do love the use of simple lines visually communicating the electrical wires, I think that to the people who create Techno music and are involved in that genre, it's very easily recognisable. Developed further and paired with my colour research - I think that it could generate some strong outcomes. 

However, as I predicted, I'm not feeling as positive about the half circles. I think it could be the fact that they are in a solid black colour and so feel very awkward and jaunty. I still want to take them further into some colour variations to see if this makes them work or not. I think that when used with colour on top of colour - they could work? 

Finally, as happy as I am with this development I definitely need to try out more typefaces. Here I'm using a funky display typeface called Noer which I picked because it is modern and engaging. My friend suggested using a combination of three or even four typefaces to make the outcomes more engaging and exciting - I really want to give that a go.
