Information on the poster.

I have two posters to talk about the design and its information. The first one has a beautiful design and composition. The poster gives me some information about the event or competition. The headline or the name of the competition is really hard to read. I would like to know about your thoughts. Does the headline should able to be read easily? I would use the different typography but still give the same feeling and reduce the detail of small elements around the headline to make it more readable. However, the information of the competition is most important thing for designing a poster. This poster does not give me enough information. Moreover, I have to look up more information from the other places. However, if the designer put more details in this poster, it would makes the poster more complicated.


The second poster is the schedule of event. It has a clean, plain, and modern design. Obviously, the information on the poster I could not read. By the way, I really like the design of this poster because of two reasons. First, the designer designs the box as a decoration items on the poster. The black boxes do not compete with the overall design. Second, the bold letter of title, date and month is really standout. In addition, I assume that the information below is the information of the day above which is placed in the right position.



These are my thoughts about these posters. I really would like to know about your thought. Which way do you like to design the poster between complexity and simpleness.

Facebook site's redesign.

Last year, There were good news and bad news from the social networking site “Facebook”. The good news: there are more than 100 million users and viewers worldwide. The bad news: there are also 100 million users who hate the site’s redesign. Because of the new structure, the site’s visual clutter and the various sets of navigation tabs, the users claim that the designers take away the personality of their main page. However, the designers give the users an acceptable reason why they have redesigned the site. Facebook’s design is an update version, which has now become the digital design standard; soft, rounded corners and minimal clutter. No matter how beauty its look, Facebook is the most popular social networking site among many others.

Shift your possibility.

There is one reason that I have to post this campaign that Norik and I have designed for advertising the new product for Adobe CS4. We have not had a chance to explain why we have to design the visual look of our ads kind of the same feeling from Adobe.
First of all, we needed to keep the identity of Adobe brand and personality.
Second, as a creative designers identity of the product is the most important thing that we have to keep it in our minds.
Finally, this campaign is boring or not, I really happy with this project and totally happy with what we have done.

Printed advertising.

First of all, there is a printed ad for Adobe CS4!!! I really like this ad cause It reminds me that my hand could control the way I want to paint or design things more than the computer and program does. However, CS4 gives that ability to me and the user!!!

Stefan G. Bucher

Thursday 6, 2008 Stephan G. Bucher came to Cal State L.A. to talk about his life, his designs, his clients and his style. The style of his works makes him outstanding, unique and memorable. Beside, the way he deals with his clients inspired me to treat my clients in the future. Not only the way he designed his works that is interesting, but also the way he presented himself by using the slides, movies, and the sequence of the slide make the event looks like a talk show. I imagine that if he were a professor in the university how interesting of his slide would be.
“When an idea pops into his head he can’t stop until he somehow makes it real” This is the thing that sticks in my head and make me think of it every time how good I am as a graphic designer? Could I execute my ideals and my thoughts through the concept of my designs, through the elements of my works and through the composition of my layout?


He was talking about the Daily Monster that he has been drawing everyday. The reason why he keeps drawing the monster is he would like to be inspired by the ink everyday and improve his creative skill by drawing it.
I would like to say thank you to him and everyone who bring him to our campus. Hopefully, we will have a chance to listen to the great designer who comes to talk in our campus or in L.A. I wont miss that thing for sure.
