¡Cómo me gustaría visitar el Palacete Burgos una vez se hayan terminado las obras de rehabilitación! Lástima que vaya a ser una vivienda particular.

Ninguna sorpresa el hecho de que el nombre del arquitecto Javier Goerlich esté detrás, puesto que lo está en la mayoría de edificios importantes y maravillosos de Valencia, realizados en la primera mitad del siglo XX.

Mi sorpresa ha venido al ver el nombre del edificio, puesto que yo siempre lo he conocido como "La casa del médico" ¿por qué, si fue mandado construir por una mujer, María Burgos, viuda de Olmos, quien heredó de su marido una empresa maderera y la fortuna familiar?

María falleció sin descendencia y la casa la heredó su hermana Amparo, pues bien, la hija de esta se casó con un médico, mira tú por dónde ya ha aparecido el médico que dio nombre a la casa y quitó de un plumazo el de la mujer promotora de la misma. El médico Isidoro Álvarez Souto, cuyo único mérito (al menos para dar nombre al Palacete) fue casarse con Carmen Ricart Burgos, sobrina de María, la verdadera artífice de la construcción.

Probablemente Isidoro era una bellísima persona, entregado a su profesión. Y lo más seguro es que lo del nombre de la casa fue cosa de la sociedad pero es que siempre pasa algo para que una cosa que ha hecho una mujer quede silenciada.

A ver si conseguimos que el nombre Palacete Burgos sea el reconocido por el pueblo y así le hacemos un homenaje a María 😍

Una mujer de la que me apetece saberlo todo.

I came up with the concept to make the magazine about music. Music is a very broad topic and upon brainstorming, I decided to write on how the consumption of music has changed throughout history and on how people like Madonna single-handedly impacted the music industry in a way no other artist has and most likely never will again.

Since the majority of the magazine revolves around Madonna and Mariah, who ruled the 80s and 90s respectively, I decided to stick with a retro neon theme to represent those eras. The same goes for the fonts. The subtitle fonts of the entire magazine were inspired by Madonna’s “Like A Virgin” album cover font. For the logo and the years for the timeline, I was inspired by the static, pixelated trippy animations of the 80s. The trippy theme can be found throughout the images as well.

Project 2 : Flat mag design.  We’re to design a flat magazine in groups of 4-5 people with the title ‘the wandering eye’. 

In our group we started out by brainstorming concept ideas and we had a lot of great ideas! We eventually chose photography as a main topic and we created a joint pin-board at pinterest where we could put our inspiration in. 

After a couple of days we went through it and chose the ones we liked the most and created this moodboard. 

We were all quite fascinated with the sporadic of the text, with breaks the reading direction. But we thought that it fitted well with the topic ‘wandering eye’  

we also came up with some ideas for articles and delegated them between us to write

Here is our final design. Lydia sent me the indesign file and I made minor adjustments to spacing and typface as well as turning off hyphenation.

This is a potential layout I designed for our flat magazine project. Lydia is designing another layout option and I think hers is better so we'll probably end up using that. I went for some quite experimental choices because the design is supposed to be alien. I think next time I would need to make the boarders between columns larger. The actual space between them would be enough for a regular magazine or newspaper but having it be designed on such a large scale makes it seem too cluttered with borders as small as these.
