Visual Resistance

Design context, inspiration and visual aid to my own practice.

Brief: Develop and design a publication that defines my own practice and all of the inspiration that revolves around it. Utilising your own skill set and techniques to explore, and create a publication that ultimately can be used as own overall reference to understanding my work as a designer.

Focussing on blackletter type & red, black, white colour scheme. Relating directly to the context.

Each chapter is separated into a single publication, utilising the ‘Black Flag Logo’ as part of the identity, as this plays on the overall context of resistance. The bars are allocated numerically accordingly to the chronological steps. Overall this creates a series of four sections that build up my overall practice.
