at it. Graphic design is everywhere!”. A good majority of what she does at Pentagram, the design firm she is employed at, is typography. She has done books, album covers including that for Boston’s “More Than a Feeling” (which she hates, admittedly), and the logo for Citibank.

The goal is for the audience to buy whatever you are selling, whether it be physical products or intangible concepts, and the design must make your product entertaining without being so outlandish that the audience feels out of their depth, thus rejecting it entirely. As a result, originality is a scarce…
Researching the idea behind Mr. Meyer’s project helped me understand his project and why his items were appealing. Fred Meyer used his descriptions to tell a story for every item that he was selling on the internet. It was apparent that his goal was to attract buyers who wanted to be a part of his journey and his experience, not just a purchase.

She changes the design of her machine to fit her personal theory that if there are no ribbed cylinders on the side sticks, the stick will go through the holes of each cube. She tries one more time to fit the stick into the hole. Again, the stick does not go all the…
