Week 8_Task


The inspiration for my design came from the countries of the world. I chose 4 countries and used their country codes or abbreviations
as my letter choices. AU was chosen to represent Australia, EN for England, GR for Greece and finally CN for China. I chose the
Liberation Sans font because I prefer sans fonts for graphic design applications. The shape and form of sans style fonts are simpler
especially when playing around with the geometry and lines. My postcard design I tried to keep quite simple. The main gestalt principle
I focussed on and applied throughout my designs was closure and reification. This can be seen by the shapes created in white. There is
also a hint of continuation for example with the letter A in AU and so on.

The colour choices for my series were based on the national colours of each country. For Australia I chose green and gold as they are the
national colours and they are analagous colours, Red purple and blue for England and so on
