REFLECTION 

Experience

This module has been a fulfilling learning journey for me, providing me with an opportunity to delve into the context of publication design. In these assignments, I explored the intersection of creativity and functionality, while learning to design layouts that effectively communicate content.

Observation

I discovered that visual elements are crucial in communicating information. From choosing fonts and colors to designing layouts that enhance readability, every detail plays an important role in creating a clean and functional design.

Discovery

I learned that using colors, fonts, layouts, and images to maintain consistency in design is at the core of publication design, and cohesive visuals can enhance brand recognition. In addition, I learned that design accessibility is equally important, such as choosing readable fonts, providing sufficient contrast, and ensuring that the design is suitable for multiple viewing methods.
