GDS 108 Design Principles - Jonathan Rosales

Computer Arts, January 2012, Page 67 This composition uses color through its symbolic meaning rather than color harmonies. The random colors inside the grid-like shapes tends to remind people of the video game, Tetris. All of these colors or shapes by themselves wouldn't have any meaning to it. But by combining the two together, the composition takes on a whole "new" meaning.

Computer Arts, January 2012, Page 45 This composition shows Color Discord through its variety of color choices in their clothing. However, I do believe that this color discord still works in this piece. This was the cover for a fashion magazine that was designed to show the "future of fashion". It uses color discord to be bold in its message while pushing the boundaries of fashion.

Computer Arts, March 2009, Page 110 This composition is named "Revenge" by Damian Jagielski. I find this to be a creative composition because of how it was made. The piece was originally named, "Revenge of Unfinished Works", because each character is from an uncompleted project of Damian's. He eventually decided to use them all together as one piece. The characters were created at different times, so some might feature a different style or technique.

Communication Arts, Photography Annual 46, pg 83 ANALOGOUS Communication Arts, Design Annual 48, pg 115 COMPLIMENTARY Communication Arts, Design Annual 48, pg 44 MONOCHROMATIC Communication Arts, Photography Annual 46, pg 94 TRIADIC Each of these four compositions follow a different color harmony. The first composition follows an analogous color scheme with its use of green, blue-green, and yellow-green. The second composition follows a complimentary color scheme with its use of a red background and green shirt. The third composition follows a monochromatic color scheme through its use of different yellows. The fourth composition follows a triadic color scheme through its use of the primary colors.
