PART A:

Graphic Design problem….

Create a series of sketches which represent the following words

Increase, Playful, Tension, Congested, Order, Bold

Use four squares in each design. You can contort the squares, so long as we can recognise them as squares. Also try changing the orientation, reversing, scaling, skewing, etc of the squares. Use only black and white. The challange is to make the composition using just four squares convey the sense of meaningĀ  of the word.

Draw the results in the format of the squares given below. Choose the best one of your designs from 8 to present as your final design. (show all eigth in your sketches)
