In the beginning of the assignment we asked to write about a truism based on an important lesson that we have learned in your lives or a belief that we hold that has served us. Then, we had to design a two-color Risograph zine using the truism.
In my Zine design I wrote about an experience that I had back home when I was in high school. I chose an Islamic designed because I wanted the designed to be related to the place where I had the experience. We did not have a lot of colors options, so I tried to choose the most two similar colors to the Islamic designed. I chose black and gold. The paper that I chose also looked like an old yellow paper. The reason behind choosing this kind of paper is because most of old Arabic books used it. So I wanted my designed to look like an old Arabic books.
