COP3 : design development

Book:


I have decided to definitely use the above colour scheme after experimenting with other contrasting colours I feel I now know that these colours are definitely  the right ones. There is a big enough contrast to give a striking look but at the same time not distort the other visuals like images and logo.


After experimenting with layout I decided that the book needed to have a different aesthetic quality to it but still maintain the colour scheme and logo as the constants for recognition. I much prefer this layout for the book. It looks more like a book then the other layouts due to the fact the image of the brain has been removed and just the line drawing remains and many books use the hand rendered quality so there is that association there.

 

These are the two possible version of the cover. I think the violet one works best as there is not as much contrast between the white and purple which makes the white line drawing and logo stand out more and more legible.

Magazine:

 

Inside the magazine I want to include break pages which will act as ways to get the brain thinking more creatively. This is an example of what one of them could be 'Deface the face'. This would be a break page where the audience is invited to deface the face of the man, altering it however there mind wants to, bringing the brain into the creative flow and fast moving spontaneous effect of the brain that occurs during moments of improvisation when jazz musicians play, or illustrators draw, which this task would be mimicking the illustrator drawing freestyle.
