Homework 6

The 20 rules are very important to follow. If you don't follow them, your designs will look messy and unfinished. Keeping designs simple, avoiding color discord, and never stretching type are just some of the rules to learn so you know to avoid them. One that I usually forget about is using white as an empty space. Sometimes i feel like i have to fill in everything, but this has helped me consider keeping things minimal at times.

i really like this movie poster because its simple. Even tough the movie title is a little strange, the movie poster really gives you the idea of what the movie is about. The poster shows thinking about his past relationship with the huge crack in the ice showing that it was broken. Even though it looks a little cheesy, i like it.

In this weeks TED talk, Tim Brown talks about design thinking. He explains that we have to take a different view of design, and focus less on the object and more on design. By doing that we can see a bigger impact. He also talks about how design thinking is balancing desirability, what humans need, with technical feasibility, and economic viability. Tim wants design thinking to be applied to topics like global warming, education, healthcare,and clean water. He wants design thinking to make a positive impact and create new ideas.
