Working With Grids: Development

Over the past few days I have been working on developing my set of three posters, in order to refine them for Tuesday's next critique. I have taken the feedback on board, as well as my own self-critiques, and have been working on improving each poster. Last week at the critique I presented three posters, although they lacked effective and consistent grid systems.

However, I applied grids to each of my posters, and have been using these to create more dynamic, visually appealing information design posters. I have been basing each composition off of a 5 column grid. I have also been playing around with colour coding across the three posters, and trying to get some balance with the colours, while making sure they're still recognisable and not confused with other similar tints/shades in other graphs. I have attached some snips below:





Above, are some screenshots showing the grid structure I have used. I used 5 columns, and then have used a lot of smaller horizontal sections, which will allow me to create some horizontal relationships across the posters. I will continue to refine each of these posters and then will present them during Tuesday's critique. On Tuesday, I will upload JPEGs of each poster onto my blog. They can also be seen printed out in my physical workbook.
