Sidney Lim Yi Xiang
This layout was put together by a designer named Sidney Lim Yi Xiang. What stood out to me in the design of this was the effective combination of image with small bodies of text. The images on the stock that has been used look really nice and I think this will be something I plan to use in my groups work, an off white, fairly heavy stock to make it seem more high end and important. I like the use of a bold sans serif typeface in upper case as the titles and quotes. It really helps them to stand out.
Freshers Guide (Research)
The group spent time researching and came across this guide. It is designed for Freshers in Leeds and therefore has the same target as we do. The legibility and simplicity of this piece is something that our group took inspiration from. The layout is balanced and simple while at the same time remaining visually interesting. We plan to achieve something similar to this with our piece. Although we have decided against a booklet the way this one has been designed will inspire our work.

The design of this guide to a film festival in Singapore really stood out to me. I feel it will influence the design of the handout we are making for freshers in the 'How to...' project. It was designed by Anonymous, a design studio based in Singapore. The use of grids and columns makes the composition of each page really balanced. I like the way they have used a simple sans serif type for the title and then black copy against a white background for the body text. It makes it really functional and legible. I want a minimal yet well designed look to the piece we are creating as i feel that it will help to make the student work we will be displaying stand out.
