After deciding to base my publication around typographic presentation of different names for under, I began designing my publication. I started with a basic underwear shape for the shape of the booklet, with the type placed over the top.
I felt this wasn't working too well because it was too plain and boring for the aesthetic I was after. The text was too flat against the background and not engaging enough.
I then experimented with a different style of pants to make things more visually interesting, also changing the text to all white. I thought this definitely looked better than the previous designs, but also wasn't exactly what I wanted. I felt this looked to childlike and did not reach out to the audience I had intended.
I have decided to do some research into different design movements and eras in order to help me with the theme of my booklet. I think researching will help me solidify a design aesthetic that will be appropriate for my publication.
