Jamie and I can agree that complex patterns may not necessarily be the best thing for me to try to communicate to people (   ). I may lead them astray and give them wrong connotations. This exercise she said will be good for me as it is seemingly simple, but I should pick smart words to tell more of a story.

my basic structure for information stays the same as the first round but legibility has been improved, and the images give a richer background.

mindMAP


Take a look. I'm still working on it but these are the first groups of thought and I'm pretty sure that its a little to tangential. just gimme a shout back so I know for sure. I do think it would be an interesting way to make my icons have a broader meaning.

the darker outlined bubble around the fifties group is to help with legibility and distinction.

If I were to tell you now, I'd say I'll use the icons in a symbolic way. Maybe the gumball for capitalism; the booth could represent the people of the hour (fifties), and could start a tangent that covers cultural info; waitress- capitalism or some sort of reference to class and wage workers.

possibilities



these seem to be a good direction for the poster. They are collaged together to show the break down and build up of the "basics" mentioned by WEINGART. He said though he broke away from mainstream swiss, the basic principles remained the same.

I've been having a hard time throughout the color development of these icons with deciding whether I want the dark outline or the more subtle yet temperature contrasting outline. both are working but I think I'm going to stick with the orange outline, lightlight green background, and yellow center.
there are a couple of flaws in the icons themselves but that will be the easy part to fix.
