Is that you Chris? Who are the other two? Michelle and Holly?

Here’s some stuff that I’ve been liking:

Old Post about influences.

What you think? Add your own!

What’s yours?

Here’s what’s on the agenda for this Thursday night:

Three posters (12×18″), using one of your favorite shapes with the words ’100 Years of Architecture at Georgia Tech’ (Use no more than three spot colors and Futura Bold.)

Client: Georgia Tech College of Architecture

Assignment: Create a logo celebrating their 100th anniversary. The deliverable needs to be based on a 10×10 grid. The logo has to show progression. Black and white.

To make this easier, I set up an ai template. Replace the square pattern with your shapes.

Good place to start for inspiration: Wolfgang Weingart, Josef Müller-Brockmann, Karel Marten, John Maeda.

Please have 10 variations posted on flickr by Midnight.

Next week we’re meeting at Armchair.

Good luck!

1) Revise your three selected shapes, and tighten the gestalt. Pay special attention to white space and balance.

2) Explore juxtapositions with type. Use Futura, bold, lower case.

Good luck! Look forward to submissions by midnight Thursday!

Yup. These are (for the most parts) all the books you will ever need.
