Born in 1929, New York City, Milton Glaser has become a recognised designer in putting your mind in a state of readiness.

Part One: What style speaks to you the most and why? List designers and examples of works to justify your response. The style that speaks the most to me is Modernism. I like the modern architecture because it is a reflection of the great technical innovations that began to appear in the nineteenth century. Materials such as steel and concrete give architects unreleased possibilities of creation, which makes the style completely unlike anything have seen. What best characterizes and makes me…

I couldn 't tell you how many photo and design contests I have seen recently; for all of them, of course, I have wanted to do my share and submit something. Do I actually have time for that though? Probably not with all the requirements each contest asks for along with my school work, being involved in Spring Arbor University’s Student Government, their school paper “The Pulse,” and a few other extracurricular activities I participate in.
