Pier Blog Review

Amy Bennett's Design Diary
Amy's project is coming along nicely. It looks as though she has continued to study the essence of an avocado throughout her entire project. I appreciate the continuous exploration and her desire to push the original concept. The pictures of her model show that she is working hard and being meticulous. It's really paying off because her model looks very clean and professional!

Pier Blog Review 1

Review of Amy Bennett's Design Diary
I enjoyed looking over Amy's Blog. It's overall look is professional and clean. The main element of her blog, they grey background allows the blue text and project photographs to pop. Simple details such as picture labels, large breaks between paragraphs, and subtitles add clarity to her posts. I appreciate that she takes a uniform approach in the design of each blog entry. Her concise writing style allows the images to speak for themselves but helps the viewer to understand her thought process.

Details like these have inspired me to and improve my own blog.

Goals for my own blog:
I would like my blog writing style to be personal but concise
I would like to try using subtitles and captions

Inspiration 9/13

Mesmerizing

I love staring at these exploding/imploding forms. 

I keep wondering where they came from, what caused them, what's inside of them? They are in opposition but fit together well; One is dusty and dry while the other seems damp. Each photograph captures both a heaviness and a lightness.
