"Rivers separate us all, just like what it they do to body copy."

As when you do typography in graphic design when you fully justify text columns, if you don’t use story settings and change the left and right indents of the columns, then you will get rivers in you body copy, as to many of them and having wide rivers is a no! no! in typography, as it makes your typography look bad aesthetically and makes for hard for the audience to read.

This is because the human brain and phycology don’t like disharmony, as when you sperate elements it breaks up the relationship with the body copy / elements within your designs.

Chris Do see it in your work, he will point it out and not in afraid to saying it.

So, make sure you don’t break this rule in good typography, as if you want to be a professional graphic designer you will not break this rule of typography, you can only do this only if you know what you are breaking and know how to execute this within your designs, function over design.

If you didn’t know already branding, marketing and companies use connotations?

Branding/marketing agencies use connotations in branding marketing strategies, in a subtle or frank manner for mission & vision statements in core values sale patter and...

It's like painting a masterpiece with words, in which you the brand marketer are saying to your audience.

Jock Kinneir & Margaret Calvert were given the task of designing the Great Britain’s current road signs that you see today, as the old road were old fashioned and wasn’t legible to read from a distance, as they need to be for motorists to read from a far.

So, they got down designing in the 1965 for the new road signs their brief was to design the signs in a simple modern and to last the test of time legible to read from a distance, as they have done the signs are one of the great artwork graphic design pieces to date, as they are artworks in themselves and in the designs house of fame for their works.

Launched and used on all British roads on 1 January 1965.

Can you guess these brand shapes?

Good design in braning & packaging dosen’t need a name, as the logo symbol pacaging silhouette will do the talking, so will the mission statment and vision of the company go hand in hand.

As if you convey a brand with no name you are on to a winning formula for a sucsessful brand package.

The name dose help so you have a associate name that can be associated with a company.

When you create a unique brand identity, you need think outside the box on how to be unique in the final
ex*****on in a logo and in the developing packaging design.

This post is inspired by the , as I like the Olympics and the graphic designs that are put in it, and how each time they keep it to s ciratian theme and consept.

I have chossen some of my favorite Olympic logos and put my own name style to each one, and put a medle bellow how I think the designs are ranked, I hope you agree with me with this.

These carousels are done in a artic, minimal way, as I like classic minimal design like the Beuhaus, Paul Rand inpired.

Why is 1.618 so important?

The Golden Ratio (phi = φ) is often called The Most Beautiful Number In The Universe. The reason φ is so extraordinary is because it can be visualized almost everywhere, starting from geometry to the human body itself! The Renaissance Artists called this “The Divine Proportion” or “ ”.

It is use in graphic design, as it make for a guide/template for creating logos illustration, the right scales to making it look just right for the eye to look at.

Graphic designers acquire these caps.

To be a graphic designer you wear a lot of caps and have to do alot of thing to become one

Like as follows:
