Crit Peer Feedback

CRIT PEER FEEDBACK

For the feedback i brought a mockup of titles on each page and numbers so i could work out where my tru grain would be slotted into place. I brought with me a printed mockup with titles quotes and spaces on the document where the text and images would be placed. I also brought four packaging mockup designs.


 



Feedback i received-

STRENGTHS

  • Blue print & Packaging idea - Good gives it theory.
  • Tru Grain showing structure in even 'messiest' patterns
  • Font is very geometrical try Futura?
  • Love the envelope idea with blue print inside  - works well with theme/content think style is very consistent - true grain layout + packaging.
  • Use of try grain shows knowledge of theory & Blue printing packaging

AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT

  • I think its good that you have a smaller ratio of body copy to image/pattern. Let the patterns do more of the talking but it is good to have info.
  • Would add pagination. Have you thought about colour?

CONSIDERATIONS

  • Try spiral bind maybe? Japanese stab bind
  • Make sure grids are different
  • Layout of book/pages could follow grid on tru grain example 'symmetry , page , reflection repeat patterns sections'
  • Think about different columns/white space when you add text so it isn't too bulky
  • Could add small patterns round pages - over lapping text/image - could add more interesting element.
  • How are you going to take this further for next thing?

Reflect on the type of feedback we received.
