Design Log – Final Design When you have finished your design you must do 2 things Explain which tools you used and why you used themJustify your design decisions 1.Identify the tools you have used1. Identify some of the design decisions you made 2. Explain how you used them to create your design 2. Justify why that decision was apocopate for the audience 3. Justify why they were better than any other tool3. Justify why that decision was apocopate for the purpose For top marks – Explain how you adjusted the tool to make it achieve the effect you were looking for. For top marks – consider what makes a good design. Does it make it stand out/look more professional etc? “I used start and rectangle tool to make the outline. I drew these separately and then used the “join” tool to create a compound shape. This meant that I could add a gradient to the whole shape, and create a unique background to make my logo stand out” “I used a gradient as the background to make to stand out and look more effective. I decided to make it go from light yellow to dark yellow so that it was bold without looking too garish. This added to the professional look I was going for. Alongside this, yellow suits the sunny, Caribbean style.”

Elements table Every element that you design must go into your elements table. This includes The door The window Other elements (lamp post, bin etc etc)
