Description:
Matching letterhead and business card designed using a personally created logo.
Process (Programs, Tools, Skills):
It took me a long time to decide what business I wanted to design for, but eventually I decided on a paint company. I first sketched out my ideas, then I took them to my tutor, Brent, and he helped me figure out how to lay it out on the computer. I designed the rainbow circle, the paint drips, and the rainbow line in Adobe Illustrator. I then used the Pathfinder tool to split up all the intersecting lines and make them different colors. Then I uploaded them into Adobe InDesign, and put all the text on the Business Cards and the Letterhead.
Message:
My message is that there is a modern, stylish, paint company out there.
Audience:
My audience is anybody looking to paint or renovate their homes in the near future.
Top Thing Learned:
The top thing that I learned this week was that it is okay to be creative, and have a lot of ideas, you just have to be able to harness them to create something that the customer wants.
Color scheme and color names:
My color scheme is Tetradic, and my color names are Teal, Indigo, Gold, and Brick

Ellie, I think your design is fantastic. The way you incorporated your color scheme into almost everything made it all come together and really aided with unity. I also like the way that you designed your logo. It is simple, yet full of the message. Your business cards are nicely done with the contrast. Overall a very good design.

Ellie with the power house design! I really like the way your design comes together for your business card. The way the paint looks like it is dripping down over is sublime. I think the PP goes together nicely, and the colors behind paint the perfect message for what type of company you are. I like the right alignment in your business card, and the spacing helps it seem less cluttered. Well done.
