This week we were expected to post up our finished work according to the tutorial we followed on a template for a template we were experimenting with in Adobe Indesign. I had made some modifications, being that we were expected to make our own design that was to some degree based off that template. I modified the content of the article along with the picture, but all in all the design was not fundamentally altered in any serious way. In class, two classmates did presentations on two very influential graphic designers. The first was Adrian Frutiger (born May 24, 1928 in Unterseen, Canton of Bern) a typeface designer from Switzerland. He is best known for a realist sans-serif typeface called Univers. The other was Max Huber (1919–92) was an influential Swiss twentieth century graphic designer. Most of the work he did was in Italy. The job puts him in contact with the post-war Italian intelligentsia:Cesare Pavese, Natalia Ginzburg, Elio Vittorini, Franco Fortini, Ettore Sottsass, Achille Castiglioni and Albe Steiner. His typefaces were known to be very abstract and minimalistic. After the presentation we discussed the next homework assignment which will be creating a magazine cover through a tutorial that we are directed to follow. Posts for that when I'm done are on the way.
