On our trip to printed matter, we stopped at the high line first. We saw buildings that had design principles that the professor showed us. The buildings had interesting shapes and designs on them. I rarely get to see things like that in New York since I don’t explore the city as much, but I’m glad that I got see some of the areas that the professor took us to.

We we went to the store printed matter, I was interested in a lot of the books that were there. The books told stories with different design principles, numerous images, text, and different styles that were used in the books. Some of the books had really nice images along with the way they were designed.

I this one book that inspired me and I thought that it would work well with how I want my book designed. The book had the same design element in each page. It had monochromatic colors on each page. I couldn’t figure out what shape was created, but it looked like oval shapes that were overlapping each other. I thought it had an interesting view. Each page had balance and I think that there was one or two colors for every page. For my book, I was thinking of having something similar to it, but I might use it as a background.
