The Grid System - 0 views

  •  
    I wanted to know more about the use of grids and how often they are used in design so I found this website that helps designers with possible grid layouts. There is so much here to see and process that the website itself is set on a grid like design.

Graphic Design Basics Part 3: Composition - 0 views

  •  
    I wanted to find another site with a more in depth explanation and found one with totally new elements that can be used to improve layout and design. Most of these examples I have never heard of besides focal point and grid design, but you can never know too many new ways in order to improve your delivery, right?

Rheotic on the Town (Balance) - 0 views

    JayDax website is developed by a husband wife team, (John and Shelia Chapman) http://www.jaydax.co.uk/lastsupper/lastsupper.htm Rhetorical Analysis: This is a painting of the Last Supper painted by Leonardo Da Vinci. The purpose of this painting is to depicting the scripture in the Gospel of John 13:21,, in the Holy Bible. The targeted audiences are people who are Christians, artist, bible and historian scholars. Understanding the individuals in the painting are biblical, namely Jesus Christ in center of painting establishes a portion of the targeted audience, and the fact that it is a well known painting of Da Vinci establishes the art and historian scholar audience. Design Analysis: The painting is very good example of visual weight. Both symmetrical and asymmetrical balanced are use. Jesus is centered as well as the arch in the center of the table and the apostles are depicted on both sides of Jesus using symmetrical balance. When examining the table setting of the food symmetrical balance is used. Other examples of symmetrical balance are the rear windows, the gridded ceiling. All of these examples convey the definition of symmetrical as history, dignity, and formality. Asymmetrical balance in seen in the arches, one side is colored in and on side white space is used providing contrast and visual weight. Although the panels on the wall are symmetrical the contrast used on the left side provides an unequal, asymmetrical, balance.

    This site gives an overview of what Cloud computing actually means to the user. This was helpful to me because nowadays everyone uses cloud computing and it also helped go in a little more detail than chapter 4 of The Computer: A Very Short Introduction

Alignment in Graphic Design and Page Layout - 0 views

  •  
    Although this webpage isn't reallf long, I think it is simple and imformative about what alingment is. It also discusses the use of grids in graphic designs and it also explains the types of text alignments that are discussed in the book. Overall this website is short, simple and sweet but helpful.
