Explore LEAF in Graphic Design
Applied Elements in 100 LEAF
The first phase is Working with elements of design lines, dots, plains. They have interpreted visuals in relation to movement, repetition, alignment, proximity, balance, contrast, and unity.
Applied Elements
The second phase is to explore geometric and organic-grid forms and experiment with how units, shapes, and structures relate. It is an understanding of basic elements of 2D Form dot, line, plain, and shape creating a strong piece of communication.
Design of Letter L
Design of the first letter “L” of the leaf. This step is an experiment combining objects together in an interesting simple manner. Using positive and negative space to express a clear message.
Experiment with 3D printing
Experiment with 3D printing. I chose a yellow plastic to laser-cut the letter "leaf" to illustrate the feeling of the color of autumn. I also took photos of the plastic letterform and a leaf I found in the park. It combines letterforms that connect with the leaf theme and use simple basic letterforms as images to imply an idea or to convey the message.
