Design Brief #4

I'm looking forward to designing a brochure for the next design brief.  I think it's cool that it will actually be used by the UWM Writing Center and not just a project for class.  I've designed brochures in the past but I hope to improve my skills further with this project.

I read Robin William's book, "The Non-Designer's Design Book" last year and I found it very helpful.  A lot of the things she discusses seem obvious but you never really think about them.  The most important thing I took from her book is that everything has to line up with something in a layout.  Never put a line of text in a random place because you think it looks good.  Lining everything up makes a lot more sense visually.
