as a ruler or measurement guide. The lines are to aid users in aligning the stencil letters and the "filli" accurately. |

REFLECTIONS
Experiences:
Looking back at the previous semester I remember typography being one of stressful modules and going into this semester I was expecting nothing less. This semester however turned out be much more free and enjoyable. We were given a more open platform to explore a wider array of areas for our projects. With the experiences carried from the previous semester we were better equipped to handle the stress of typography.
However the semester was packed with assignments that challenged us to think differently and come up with original ideas. Mr Vinod and Mr Samsul were much more exhaustive with there feedback pushing us to aim higher. I found myself constantly reworking on my Project 1 as my work kept getting rejected. Although this was a stressful task this made me more diligent towards my work and come up with a better and more exciting artwork.
Observation:
I noticed that this semester everyone was encouraged to think critically before coming up with a design, Every object that goes into a design should has a purpose and reason as to why it belonged in that specific place. Before getting into the designing aspect we did thorough research into the topics and ideas.
Findings:
One of the most important thing I realized this semester is the importance of purpose behind a design. Design is meant to make people think and react. A good design is not just one that is visually appalling but is one that has a positive impact on the society or its viewers. The speeches at the trouble maker manifesto really opened my eyes to this relationship between design and purpose.
