BAD DESIGN: sketchbook 13
This is an example of bad design because the text is split between two lines making it hard to read. the way that the colors are aligned in rows would lead me to believe that you should read across the entire page but this is not the case. The layout is confusing and there is too much space between the each letter and the images.
SKETCHBOOK 14:
radiohead album cover created in 1993-reminds me a lot of post-modern design in the beginning of the digital revolution. it combines a hodge-podge of styles all into one. the typeface is not consistent throughout and the letters are not slick like the san-serif typefaces common in the times of mordernism. It looks grungy and homemade like a collage of found objects
