Brochure design

Here are some design development of Zoo Negara Brochure :


by using the icon elements as part of the layout as what angie suggested, then i try to arrange it


but after another discussion and trial, finally this is the final result of the brochure. For the brochure, I decreased some of the information from the previous brochure and keep all the important information only.

Fonts


At first I had chose these fonts for our progression presentation. Other group were assigned to choice which typeface suit our design better. The choices are limited, but they chose the last typeface called Philosopher because it has different sizes of strokes and lines, just like our icons.





Thirteen set of typefaces were found. Since these fonts are free, most of them doesn't have bold and italic. Liwen said that the fonts have bad kerning and other minor but crucial details. Philosopher is a bit too fancy for a way-finding font.




This time, I focused more on simple fonts that are posted on design blogs. I have to pay attention to the details. Signika was chose and used on our signboard.



Gil Sans is our main typeface. It is used on our brochures and signage. Chosen by Steven.
