Interaction brief

My design following the interaction brief:


The Brief:
Choose one interaction from the following list and print or draw (no text
allowed!) on a single sheet of A4 paper in such a way that prompts a user to do whatever you have chosen
to the piece of paper: Tear (how?), Draw (what?), Fold (how?), Put somewhere (where?), Give to someone
(whom?). Be prepared to test your interaction with one of your colleagues on Friday morning.


Letterpress induction


Such fun!

Typography presentation

I decided to talk about the price of the font family ff scala.
It is equivalent to:
- 4 pair of shoes from M&S.
- Return flight to spain and a 3 nights stay at a 4* hotel for 1 person.
- 1 Nintendo 3DS + 2 Games

It went down well and got us talking about the subject.

Researching ff scala

Homework assignment -
we're to research and later present a work based on a certain typeface
Mine is 'ff scala'.
So far I know it's dutch, from the early 90's and was designed for a music centre. So I'm trying to go from here and think of a simple way of presenting it.
