When It comes to designing it can cost a lot of money.
When starting designing It’s always best to have a go with cheaper software’s and duplicate’s of the most popular design tools just in case you still aren’t sure if it’s for you.
From experience of using different design tools I have come across various websites that do more or less the same trick.
DaFont – This is a really amazing site that I have picked up from being at College – it offers every style of typography and best of all their all all free (they even include another version in most fonts being bold and thin to choose from).

Google Font:
I haven’t used this as much as DaFont as that is my go to however I have briefly used this and It’s still as good, its useful as you can input your own writing and see how that looks and even import it on your own web page, It also allows you to custom and decide how you want which gives you a lot of choice and leeway.

Canva:
I have found that this is a really useful site It sets up all the format’s for you and whatever design you are going for whether that be: a Logo, Business Card, Invitations, etc… It offers a lot of time saving tools that means you don’t have to mess around.

These are just a few of the design websites I sometimes use/have used and are really helpful and free, I know their will be far more than this but I have yet to come across.
If anyone has any recommendations for me then leave a comment below or email me as I would be very interested into trying something new!

In my previous blog post I was working on the concept of the Apple Logo Wifi called “ifi” – I came up with a series of variations and concepts and have now finished the project for this.
Below shows the final logo I choose to go with and the presentation board with the logo insitu.

As part as my first Response piece, I choose to research into the Apple Logo and create my own concept of Apple Wifi called “ifi”.
Below shows my other concepts I had come up with and the final logo I decided to choose including a presentation board and insitu of the logo.
The main reason behind why I choose that logo as my final Logo was due to the shape as I liked the ring framing the logo and also the simplicity of it as a whole.

Recently I have researched into Sunography and completed a shoot based on this – I have editted the images through Gradient Map and Colour Balance, I feel like the Gradient Map photograph’s are stronger due to the vibrancy in the colours which makes it stand out more.
