(B1) ZINE DEVELOPMENT

  • I had really struggled before to bring our abstract designs for each symptom together. With the new style, it was easier to apply the type and colour palette. 
  • I tried a few styles of the assets we had designed across a few of the pages. The front cover remained minimal, I did not feel it necessary to overdesign it and ultimately disrupt the uniformity. 
  • The black and white were very stark compared to the emotion and support cards so, I used the logo to add a hint of colour to each page. I also like how it ties each symptom together. As mentioned previously, a lot of the symptoms overlap or become a result of another so I felt that the arrows helped show this. 
  • I did like the inconsistency of the text layout however, it would not conform to the rest of the kit and may become lost in the abstract design below it. 
  • To make the concertina to work, there had to be an equal amount of pages but there are 9 symptoms. Even when I added a front and back page, the sides would be an odd number so, I added a page next to the front cover that would have a list of useful links to access.

The idea is to let in technicolour light.  It is also known that these windows frequently feature tracery, which is decorative stone support. Pointed arches Another identifiable feature is the pointed arches. These are found in most places of worship i.e churches and cathedrals. It is suggested that the pointed style of these arches was taken from Islamic architecture rather than the typical Romanesque buildings found typically in Europe. The idea behind the shape of these wind...
