SHIPPING WORLDWIDE TO YOU⁣ Up your Zoom–Crit–Game! ⁣ ⁣⁣ Critique: The War of Design⁣ Available at www.draw-down.com⁣⁣ ⁣ Critique: The War of Design is about how to approach design critique from cultural and critical perspectives. Mixing symbolism, memoir, institutional critique, a thorough walloping of some of design’s heroes, very silly illustrations, lovingly-placed clip art, and a pinch of ritual sacrifice, this zine is intended to be a useful resource for students, teachers, and designers.⁣ ⁣ Topics include defining critique; crits in context; denotation and connotation; mean-spirited writing about grunge music and grunge typography; giving and receiving critical feedback, and honing your inner critic.⁣ ⁣⁣ #artstudents #studentart #artcollege #arteducation #schoolart #artschoollife #artclass #artteacher #fineartstudent #studentartwork #artschool #artschoolproblems #remotelearning #zoomcrits #zoomclass #zoom #designcrits ⁣ https://www.instagram.com/p/B-j0eHrnaxS/?igshid=f6chwo1afkb6

I encourage my team to hold regular design critiques. Each designer takes a turn to present something they are working on to the rest of the team. We as a team then talk through the work - picking up on good points, things to consider and improve. It serves a useful purpose for the designer presenting because it helps them to talk through their work and get useful feedback, and it's also useful for the rest of the team to see and offer input into what is being worked on, and to gain practise providing constructive feedback. This sheet was made by one of the designers for this weeks critique and gives some useful points for the group to consider discussing during the critique.
