Design Brief #5 Final Design

While working on this design my first thought was to have white space so that it did not look too cluttered. I also wanted it to look friendly and easy to ready. So what I did was selected a readable typeface with a readable font and enough leading to make my design look professional. My audience should feel ease while reading this design, and should not be overwhelmed. The typeface selected for this design was Trebuchet. I like this typeface because its easy to read, but at the same time it grabs your attention. I left the bacteria in the circle because I like the look. It gives a science look to it, and since that's what this design is about I didn't want to take away from it.
I learned that visual hierarchy is important in all designs, white space as well. If you follow these two important steps, people should be able to understand you design.

A Design I Respect

I respect this design because of the creativity. I don't think I would be able to produce this design if it was asked of me, in fact I know I wont.

I like it because of how the shoe looks. I don't like tennis shoes but I feel like I should go and get these. That's how amazing this design is. I feel that there is visual hierarchy, because the design is so crisp. You are able to see the small details of the shoe, even the laces stand out.

Awesome design
