Assignment Seven graphic  
 

 

Congratulations, you are one of the graphic designers invited to submit a poster design to accompany a series of temporary exhibits on architecture. To explain architecture to the public, each exhibit will explain a building in reference to another artifact (i.e. historic or contemporary building, sculpture, painting, product, etc.).  The museum board wants to see creative alternatives that will define the tone and style for the series, consistent with the high style of the museum.  Each artist is asked to imagine how a single sheet printed on one side could make a powerful momento of the exhibit.

  • To incorporate raster and vector graphics into a high quality print
