Setting up Zine in InDesign. Really helpful tool to help with my final. Excited to get stuck into this and get printing

An iconic "Tahiti" lamp by Ettore Sottsass for Memphis. Capturing the spirit of the Memphis movement, the lamp is composed of metal, wood and laminate in the abstract form of a bird. Really interesting design in my eyes. Great use of colour. Was designed in the 1981 which I think is great for that time period. These sort of designs would definitely impact the way we design today.

Learning how to make a "Zine" (small magazine). Easy way to find where pages need to be laid out for printing. Very useful for the project I will be producing

Emil Ruder was a typographer and graphic designer who, born in Switzerland in 1914, helped Armin Hofmann form the Basel School of Design and establish the style of design known as Swiss Design.

He placed a heavy importance on sans-serif typefaces and his work is both clear and concise, especially his typography.
