Last week I did my first draft magazine page about Havana according to my grid system.
This week I worked on my design and I changed my font with Garamond. Here is my second draft:
Grid system for inflight magazine
This week we started to create a grid system. We are using grid to structure content. The grid serves as an armature on which a designer can organize text and images in a rational, easy to absorb manner.
Here is my grid system for inflight magazine:
I decided to do 3 columns. Each columns are 5.3 cm and each gutters are 0.7mm. From left and right it is 2.1 and 1.6 cm.
I did also some exercise to understand how can I use this grid in my magazine.
Inflight Magazine
This week I did some research about inflight magazine. I found on web some examples. The visuals are generally large and plentiful with an emphasis on high quality imagery. Colours also warm, inviting, relaxing for passengers. They used a grid system by using 3 columns.

Candy Cang- ‘Before I Die’
While I was surfing on Internet I saw this interesting project which is called ‘Before I Die’. This project is done by Candy Cang who is an artist, designer and urban planner.
Before I Die is an interactive public art project that help to transform neglected spaces into a constructive places where we can discover the hopes and dreams of the people around us. It is also a reminder to ourselves of what is most important to us. Candy Cang is decided to do this project after she lost someone that she loved so much. She believes the design of our public spaces can better reflect what matters to us as a community and as individuals.
There are many people that responses on the wall and there are very funny and creative thoughts that Candy could have ever imagined: Before I die I want to… sing for millions, see my daughter graduate, eat a salad with an alien, see the leaves change many times, be someone’s cavalry, straddle the International Date Line, cook a souffle, hold her one more time, make it in the hip hop, help numerous children, see what I’m like as an old man, tell my mother I love her, make peace with Ohio, abandon all insecurities, be completely myself, evaporate into the light… The project was mentioned also in Oprah Magazine, NBC’s Rock Center with Brian Williams and The Atlantic. They are called it “merely one of the most creative community projects ever.”

This week, we finalize my business card for my airline corporate identity. We also looked at greeting cards for new year. I decided to do a box and I decided to give a notebook and pen as a gift to my client. Here is my business card and my greeting card.
Corporate Identity

They used Anne Frank, Vincent Van Gogh, Louis van Gaal and Kader Abdolah’s portraits.
Reflections
While I was surfing on Internet I found this interesting photography work by chance. This project is created by american photographer Tom Hussey for advertising posters to new Novartis drug called the Exelon Patch. Exelon is used to help people with memory problems and it is associated with Alzheimer’s disease. These images show how patients with Alzheimer’s see their younger self. Campaign includes several posters and each of them is great. Let’s look at them..
