This site attracts me because of the way it feels so comforting. The look of it is like a warm cozy home in a way. The colors are warm and the designs are interesting. I like the way the letters pop on some of the designs and the objects are nice.

THis site was attracting to me because the designs felt different. Off of the first look alone it had a very distinct feeling to it. The colors flow on everything and it looks like a river of colors. It reminds me of paint dripping down a wall. I like how distinct the designs are and how they look.

The site caught my interest because of the cartoonish and animated designs they are something I am familiar with and enjoy a lot. The round shapes that are frequently used in the designs is also something that I like because round objects are usually fun. I also like the layout since it has everything laid out straight down in a line.

This site is attractive to me because the designs seem kind of retro. It feels like something you would see on a book like Diary of A Wimpy Kid. The designs feel childish in a way, it is like a child that made it. From what I can see I think that the designs have a kind of back to school advertisement look to it.

This site attracted me because of the layout of the site. The layout is cool and reminds me of Tron. I also like how abstract all the designs are. They all have something unique about them and that is what makes me like them. The letters are bubbly, they all pop out to the viewer.

 This process was the same as it was for the gray, struggled to do most of it. The color work was the easiest part, i wanted to use soft colors that would kind of make a person happy to look at. I'm not sure what creative element I may have implemented into this.

  For my designs I wanted them to feel silly and look full of air in a way. I thought that to make it mix and match I would change the type for each letter. The type changes in 2 and 3 I feel are the most accurate to the pencil roughs which I like. The last one Cartoon Chaos seems very childish which was the goal but the type wasn't what I wanted, it is close to the pencil rough though. I like that they turned out close to the pencil roughs.

Data Visualization Inspiration

 1. The Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum Designing Peace Exhibition combines visual installations, symbolic objects, and interactive displays to explore design’s role in fostering peace. Through imagery like the Teeter-Totter Wall that spans a border fence and giant text installations such as “ACT NOW,” the exhibition visually dramatizes how design interventions can challenge conflict and spark dialogue. By juxtaposing vivid photos, maps, and objects from global projects, it translates complex issues about division, reconciliation, and collective humanity into accessible, emotionally resonant visual experiences that engage viewers beyond text. 2. Seeing how Designing Peace uses strong visual metaphors inspires a data visualization approach that foregrounds narrative and emotion as much as numerical insight. Instead of only showing numbers or charts, I would think about how imagery can make data feel tangible — for example, using everyday objects or relatable scenes to rep...
