This logo was designed to emphasize "music" and simultaneously the first letter "F" of funk to give a clear impression of our project and Instagram page. Neon colours were applied for stronger legibility and to connote the funky ambience.

FEEDBACK

Proposal
-The direction of the ideation has to be more specific.
-Rationales explain the reasons for the chosen references have to be included.

Outcome
-Create a logo (as a part of branding) representing the account.
-Utilize the tile arrangement properly to provide a good visual experience to audiences.

-Add a QR code that links the Instagram account on 
the final poster.


REFLECTION


Experience

Despite that it was seven weeks short-term, I could train comprehensive skills throughout the Intercultural Design module. The project we were assigned as a group required continuous efforts such as a sufficient amount of research, idea development, time management and communication skill. 


Observation

Based on the instruction, we had to present an idea that connotes "culture." Working on a project without a particular direction was absorbing and challenging at the same time. I observed that adequate idea development and research are the basic frames for a successful design. 


Findings

I found it very attractive to execute a design that interacts with society. The idea of processing something that can bring some effect on individuals or society has given me strong motivation and a sense of responsibility.
