This image was found in the book "20th Century: A Century of Graphic Design". I really didn't understand the concept of this design until I looked at it a little closer. I really thought it was clever how it's someone walking all over a heart. It caught my eye and made me want to know more about the image. I thought the designer was very creative in making this piece and really put some thought into his work.

This image was designed for a magazine ad for Safaricom. I found this image in the book "World Graphic Design" by Geoffrey Caban. I really liked this design because we just did a few tutorials on ads for a band. I thought the cleverness of text placement, color and gradients were very unique and it really brought out the text and helped the text stand out. I really like this design and it can inspire many.

I found this design in the book "World Graphic Design" by Geoffrey Caban. This design really caught my eye because we are currently working on a project similar to this. We are designing the cover of a CD album and this is a design of the CD itself. It has great use of text, imagery, and overall design. This design was used on the CD Cuadro De Horror. I thought this would be a great image for this week for some inspiration on my next project.

This piece of work was designed by Shepard Fairey for its client Grand Royal Records. I found this piece in the Extreme Design book by Spencer Drate. This piece was designed for a band to show their fans when their upcoming concerts are and where they are located. It looks very similar to some of the tutorials we've been doing in class and I was picking out the pieces I could create in Adobe Illustrator. I really liked this image because it's lous, vibrant and eye-catchy!
