Through minimalist eyes

2. What symbols can you see?

3. What are their messages?
(„Speaking with images“ Luba Lukova)

4. MINIMALISM Minimalism can be described as the stripping away
of all unnecessary elements and
focusing on what needs to be there.
It encourages purpose.
(Mary Stribley)

5. GOOD POSTER SHOULD BE:
AESTHETIC – It should get attention so the message is delivered.
FOCUSED – It should focus and communicate on a single message.
ORDERED – The sequence should be well-ordered and obvious. (

6. PRACTICAL TIPS RESEARCH
HIDDEN RELATIONSHIPS – play and explore them in your design
SPACIAL RELATIONSHIPS - consider how your design interacts with other elements
EFFICIENCY - displays information neatly and efficiently
BALANCE – a good design often ensures that no one element overpowers the other with no good reason
BREAK SOME RULES
WHITE SPACE - white space can help balance out your design, declutter it and help it breathe

7. BE DIRECT - when there are less elements fighting to be seen, you are able to be a lot more direct with your message and overall communication
SCALE IT UP – a simple design, when purposely scaled, helps you dictate the exact path your audience will take over your publication
USE ICONS – they can enhance accessibility, reduce the amount of text or type you have on a page and help guide users around your design visually

8. GET SYMBOLIC
minimalism is a great chance for you to explore the depth of symbolism with your design
try and think around an object, about the things associated with the subject, about what the subject stands for

IT TO LIFE....!
