As a graphic designer who is designing for print on a daily basis, I find paper a fascinating subject and love learning about it. I get giddy when looking through a new swatch book and seeing the innovative textures and coatings. (Let me know if I'm not alone in this!)
I want to post more informational graphics about paper, inks, coating, and print finishes here in this community. I think knowing about these things helps us make better design choices when designing for print.
That said, I have created a few simple graphics about writing papers to get the conversation started on this. More of these types of posts are to come, and the more comments, questions, and interactions we have, the more relevant and interesting these posts will become.
I look forward to seeing what kind of interesting conversations we can start today!
I recently finished a design project for OU's Crimson and Cream Copy Center & Student Post OFfice. They wanted some fun, creative shipping labels that students could purchase and use on their packages. They requested some birthday, university, and generic themed labels. Here are the final designs!
What do you think about this set of pin buttons geared towards students studying or interested in technology and IT?
Share something you like and something you would do differently in the comments! 😄 AND make sure to stay tuned for the next set of themed buttons!
