- 29. Wassily Kandinsky – Autumn in Bavaria

Hinweis der Redaktion
- Thanks: BOALT, Jackson, you. How many designers? How many artists?
- Our agenda for the next 30 – 40 mins
- Ironworks – Who, Where, ClientbaseMe – WV – got into design thru punkrock – DIY – MWC art program – traditional – segue into principles
- Language of visual communication
- What does this mean to US web folk?Raise your hand if you’ve ever had to discuss visual designGet a visual languageMake the logo biggerMiscommunicationsAnother way… flip
- Imitation – blame css galleries – designers that copy without understanding “why” things look good Any questions?
- Set up. Principle, Art, Websites. “Spot the Principle”
- 2-d prop and 3-d prop. Proportion creates a feeling of futility, distance & separation. Proportion = powerlessness
- Combo of 2d objects in 3d space
- Typography utilizes proportion
- Pop Quiz: how does this composition use proportion well?Proportion is a relationship issue.
- Unified composition is about completion … not tension. Uses 3rds for layout
- Unity can be content, or portions of a composition. Classic study of Unity of Shape. Subconsciously “looks nice” picking up on these unified shapes.
- Unity does not have to be subtle and quiet. It can be that everything is LOUD.
- How is unity used (or not used) in this example? This looks like it was designed by a dozen diff people who couldn’t see each others work.
- Groupings, calls to action, important stuff. Disassociated from other items.
- Need to find new example
- Groupings of similars, variety between them
- Creates a large amount of interest
- At the forefront of the ‘large bkgd’ trend which has become very popular. Variety b/t floral illustrations and tactile paper creates both a divide and a balance
- Pop quiz: why is this design unsuccessful?
- Grid-based design
- Symmetrical balance is rare on the web and in art
- Asymmetrical balance
- Web-friendly art. Look at cubist and futurist paintings for inspiration. Geometric and removed from realism.
- Nearly symmetrical balance
- How you direct attention, how you communicate focus on important items. It is pleasing to be drawn in to a composition.
- Futurism deals with motion
- Using both hue and line to draw the eye
- This is pushing design forward. Natural transitions of content areas. Like a house with an open floor plan.
- Dominating figure becomes almost secondary to the logo and navigation
- Your turn, show me how direction is used here. The black threads subconsciously lead your eye around
- Backgrounds, groupings,
- Single item, not interesting. Duplicated 200 times, pretty interesting.
- Renewal of this style due to twitter. Patterns create groupings.
- Separation of each content piece, but the eye groups together similar ones.
- At least 3 patterns going on here, what are they?Pattern of circles in the header creating a field, pattern of content boxes in the bottom creating rigid content. Pattern of info boxes across top.
- Design is about constraints. Needs to satisfy business requirements AND aesthetic requirements
