visual organization #1: basic observations

good design stems from a thru knowledge of building blocks of design and specifying them appropriately, based on the format and function of an individual project.

 

evolves from a mindset:

1. willingness to experiment
2. confidence in perceptions
3. recognition that design is  a process, not an event
4. devotion to detail

design process is simply an extension of the organizing process that began as you developed the concept for your project.

(if you're unclear about the purpose and not decided on the sequence and relative importance of info you wanna communicate, you're in dangerous water)

define project's purpose & environment. don't force to operate subjectively rather objectively. effective design emerges from trials and error. train yourself to constantly analyze the work of others.

there are no good or bad designs, only appropriate and

 inappropriate one. think of design as a means of communication rather than decoration. design and technology should only enhance, not overshadow the message. clarity, organization and simplicity are critical.

provide natural tendency that steers your readers to read from point to point. reconcile the need for both variety and consistency. predictability and symmetry result in boredom. contrast provide dynamic interest and enhance the communicating power of publication.

VISUAL TENSION

the cause and the cure

the outcome includes consideration of environment in which your ad or publication will be distributed. inside a publication, design two-page spread instead of individuals. readers seldom encounter just one page but see facing pages together.

restraint is the hardest design principle to apply in a consistent manner. strive from simplicity in design. excessive emphasis weakens your publication to the point where it loses all impact. even the smallest offending details can sabotage the appearance.

proofreading demands a lot of attention to details. be careful of spellings errors before the presses are running.

thumbnail' proofs reveal where design has been sacrificed for expediency. see how spreads look.

7  HABITS OF 

HIGHLY EFFECTIVE PEOPLE

break loose from being dependent upon others.

1. Be Proactive.

be prepared to respond in a way that you can feel proud if. even if it requires unearthly hard work. dont blame your parents for what you are today.

2. Begin With The End In Mind.

visual the result or future you want to achieve. make decisions according to your deeply held beliefs, principles and fundamental truth. have a sense of purpose.

3. Put First Thing First.

take full control and stay discipline. 'important' comes first than 'urgent'. 

increase the effectiveness with others and you.

4. Think Win-Win Situation.

seek solution to problems that allow both parties involved in benefits. motivate yourself to improve and believe in abundance. one person's success doesn't necessarily require someone's failure.

5. Understand First, Then Try To Be Understood.

listen with strong intent to fully understand on both intellectual analytical and emotional level before you 'blame'. diagnose before you prescribe.

6. Synergize.

open your mind to fresh, creative ideas and be an agent of innovation. be a peace maker, not boom maker. *gain trust*

7. Sharpen The Saw

balance your work and personal life. never rest on your laurels. keep innovating and refining and have a relentless thrist for learning and exploring.

LOVE LIFE, AND LET OTHERS LOVE US

est 1988, feb14

Age is an issue of mind over matter.
If I don't mind it, it actually doesn't matter.

so...

Getting older once again isn't so so bad when I consider the alternative.
On the plus side, death is one of those things which can be done by just lying down.

*wahahaha*

LOST

Step one you say we need to talk

He walks you say sit down it's just a talk

He smiles politely back at you

You stare politely right on through

Some sort of window to your right

As he goes left and you stay right

Between the lines of fear and blame

And you begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend

Somewhere along in the bitterness

And I would have stayed up with you all night

Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best

Cause after all you do know best

Try to slip past his defense

Without granting innocence

Lay down a list of what is wrong

The things you've told him all along

And pray to God he hears you

And pray to God he hears you

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend

Somewhere along in the bitterness

And I would have stayed up with you all night

Had I known how to save a life

As he begins to raise his voice

You lower yours and grant him one last choice

Drive until you lose the road

Or break with the ones you've followed

He will do one of two things

He will admit to everything

Or he'll say he's just not the same

And you'll begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend

Somewhere along in the bitterness

And I would have stayed up with you all night

Had I known how to save a life

if you are the typical type to hold grudge,
you're punishing yourself more than the person you're angry with.
