So today I haven't interacted much with my degree project, besides the reminder bells that keep going off in my head that I need to start working on my first assignment for the semester, and like, asap, or I'm going to regret it.
Last semester I didn't create enough stuff and I'm afraid that was not okay, so this semester I've got to take it up a notch and make sure I produce some amazing things.
My first assignment is a branding of the history of design in Mexico, specifically in the era that I'm interested in, which is around the Mexican revolution (1900-1940ish).
So, since this needs to be pretty much finalized by Monday, expect future updates from me to be about this. I will start with research and sketching and go on from there. My favorite idea right now is using inspiration from the hand-painted signs that are all over Mexico.. just painted right on to the building. I wanted to call it something like "Diseño México" but I don't know if it's too.. um.. egoistical of me to assume that everyone will understand that diseño is the word for design in Spanish. I just loooove the special characters and accents in Spanish. And it would be so much fun to hand-do the type.
Sketches will be forthcoming, I'm sure!
