REFLECTION

Experience

If I had to sum this module up in one word, it'd be "crazy". There were a lot of times where I doubted myself as a designer, and times where I felt completely lost because I couldn't understand the assignment. But I'm really glad that Mr Vinod kept pushing me, because it challenged me to even better than what I thought I could.

Observation

I realized that I grew a lot throughout this course, and I gained a deeper understanding and appreciation towards typography. I also understand more about the design process, and all the thoughts that go behind each and every decision made in designing.

Findings

Everything that I've learnt so far barely scratches the surface of this field. Learning more about typography just makes me wonder how people can take this art form lightly, because there is so much thought and careful consideration that goes into good typography. Besides that, I also appreciate criticism more now because I realized it really did help me improve faster.
