This week I continued work on the draft.
The feedback I got Last week is 1. manipulate with the size of the text 2. make the spread consistent with the poster, use a black background, the first page can be full bleed. The background photography is interesting though it has no relationship with design. But because I set the design subtitle as stop, and think back. This debris seems as the history of design, we need to rethink the history. I feel that is the intrinst of this design forum. I want the audience to get to know history of graphic design from different era and location, stop, reflect, get new thoughts from these old puzzles.

For The spread, I photoshop the image to make it high contrast and blend to the black background. For the page number and nyu logo, I continue with the grid concept.
