Bag project

1. What are the areas of EMPHASIS? How did you use the elements of art to make them stand out? Elements are: color, value, shape, size, texture, line.... or other visual effects?
The emphasis if the Empire state building because it's the largest shape on the bag. I put a white apple shape behind the empire state building in order to create a contrast. 

2. How did you use elements to lead our attention around the bag?
The shape of the empire state building is the biggest shape in my design, and that's also the emphasis. Then I use different color on the people to show that they are famous in different places.

3. What software techniques or design ideas made your work unique?
I use different layers during this project, and it helps me to put things in order.

4. How does your design relate to and describe the word you were given?

I used the word venerable around the bag, and it goes around the bag. 
My word is Venerable which means old and respected so I think it related to History, so I use kind of a dark brown color as the background to shows that everything is old.

QUESTIONS

1. Where was the Bauhaus School located?
The Bauhaus was founded by Walter Gropius in Weimar, Germany in 1919, then the school moved to Dessau in 1924.

2. When was it in existence?
The school existed in three German cities: Weimar from 1919 to 1925, Dessau from 1925 to 1932 and Berlin from 1932 to 1933, the school was closed by its own leadership under pressure from the Nazi regime, having been painted as a centre of communist intellectualism.

3. What is different about the Bauhaus' design work from the designs that came before it?
The school favored simplified forms, rationality and the idea that mass production could in harmony with the artistic spirit of individuality. The most difference about Bauhau's design work is that it conclude different terms of art in their design, the bauhaus combined elements of both arts and design education. The curriculum commenced with a preliminary course that immersed the students, who came from a diverse range of social and educational backgrounds, in the study of materials, color theory, and formal relationships in preparation for more specialized studies.
