Here it is. My final re-design, I'm thinking about making this into a single folded peice instead of a booklet, trying to wrap my brain around how that will work. Suggestions and comments please!
So I was totally uninspired when I started revising my zappos catalogue, I visted the website to get back into the groove of it, and fell in love with some of the moccasins they have...maybe I'm crazy for completley starting over but I had to pursue this, I'm liking it way better than my first one (and the second time around goes way easier/faster). The background textures are from pictures that I took. Do you guys like it with or without the background? ...really really want some moccasins now...or do you like the first one better? votes are appreciated!I revisited my business card today, and just wanted to get some more eyes on it and hopefully some feedback, I think I've exhausted all my options at this point, I guess I can always print a few versions (maybe one for each day of the week! Thats a bit much though) Votes are much appreciated!
These are the Ads that acompany my Green Idea identity. I think I'll focus on typography, making all the green bars one color, and the paint buckets need a better photoshop job this time around (the original pic has different colors in each can, only one is green.)
Its actually NOT neon green, just look at the layout and typography please! switched the headline to myriad pro from century gothic and took out extra elements like the flower and green text (its grey now) just making everything secondary to the picture and headline.
My next before and after (is that a tv show?) will be re-designing my green idea logo. I really like this logo, and didn't realize untill todays resume crit that Optima is not as great of a font as I once thought...imagine that. So I will be posting this logo with different fonts that convey the same type of feel- sophisticated environmentally conscience yuppy type fonts...maybe Optima IS the best choice after all...
And if I don't procrastinate too much I want to try to get this awful brochure to do Michael Pollan's article justice.
Brochure after: This brochure is going to be in a light bulb shape when printed and cut, I've made more graphic elements that compliment the logo. Shortened the article to a few key bits and peices. But I'm not sure where to take it from here. I think its lacking something...
Made some changes with the text, its not so-all over the place- now. Added another illustration to continue the junk on the curb look, and re drew/scanned the fence on the right to get rid of the gaps.
This is my two page spread intro to my feature article in cl magazine. As you can see improvments are needed.
After: drew and scanned another fence illustration for the other side (no more gap) and more junk for the curb...finnessed the text so it wasent floating all over the place, and added another text bit to occupy the enormous white space at the bottom. What do ya think?
Made a few more changes after reading comments. Applied the red and black curb illustration underneath the craigslist text, and skewed the D in Do's so its rolling off of the a below it...
saved another version with the a smaller craigslist going at an opposite angle, not sure which one is working better.
