History of Graphic Design
Professor – Doug Scott

This project explores the lifetimes of prominent graphic designers, a noted historical figure and a more contemporary designer, as well as significant historical events during their lifetimes. I researched American designer Tomiko Miho and Japanese designer Shin Matsunaga.

I used a combined system of colors and fonts to distinguish the 3 different timelines, as well as an accordion structure to emphasize the timeline format. There are also pop-out pages to highlight historical events that overlap with Miho and Shin's lives.
