Graphic Design I: Cognitive Map

jparkcognitive

For this assignment, we were asked to articulate our route to school in icon form. This was a challenge for me because I was overwhelmed by the complexity of the assignment. I was still struggling with Illustrator at this point, and much preferred Natalie’s Type class because I found InDesign a lot more accessible, so I think this project was a little neglected.

I don’t think that’s an excuse for the quality of my work, but looking back at it now it’s refreshing to see how much I’ve grown since. This project definitely challenged my conceptions of the senses and how to map sensory data, which wasn’t an intuitive concept to me. Process played a huge role in this as well, which facilitated my understanding of craft and generating ideas.
