Sera Yong

This project starts from my question, Why people define these two fields, art and design, as professional jobs?

During a two-day workshop led by Sara de Bondt, our mission is to create one designer’s profile. I created the profile for graphic designer Sera Yong based in Berlin and Seoul. Through research, I found her positive energy and optimistic mind are revealed through bold colors from layering patterns. Also, the joys and rigors of work and play are virtually indistinguishable. For example, Sera chose her colors based on instinct and never changed anything excepting for information such as date. I thought if we can divide the discipline’s borders in today’s fluid and full of possible fields for examination and extension, the process would be the biggest differences.

For Sera’s profile, I made 100 color cards to represent her color palette based on the order of frequently used, and the stack of papers represents the way of her work, layering, itself.

SiteSite

During a two-day workshop led by Bonnie Siegler, I worked for Gabriel Melcher’s SiteSite identity. SiteSite is a free, open and participatory place. The most important factor of SiteSite is its “members”, because it can grow up through their participations. The impression of SiteSite should be lively, friendly, since it should be inviting to all generations. Also, it is deeply related with the Internet and technology.

Fortune 500

I translated the list of 500 the world’s largest corporations to the list of 9 the world’s richest families in the graphic design world. Helvetica has come to dominate the language of marketing and commerce. Its use in logos throughout the world remains as strong as ever. I see this phenomenon shows us those typeface families is considering as subjective face. The family trees, it represents their rich history and culture that they have built until contemporary graphic design world. Through scaled repetition of each typeface, the significance of its status is reinforced as a family tree, with each sibling given a different scale or weight.

Loop Lore, Loop in Nature

Our task is to publish a printed primer on the circuit, as it relates to our work, our world, and ourselves, assembled from loose-leaf dossiers in routes selected by each of you, with no two copies the same. Spiral-bound and ever changing, these primers will have no beginning, no end. Finally, as a class, we will produce a single flat “circuit” that lays these various sequences out as a whole.

Repeating patterns represent self-similarity in nature. The idea of self-similarity means that if we shrink or enlarge the pattern, its appearance should remain unchanged. The patterns are similar with a copy of itself on a different scale.

This book is the result of a two day workshop led by Rob Giampietro. Loop Lore is designed and curated by Lynn Amhaz, James Chae, Hyein Jung, and Bon hae Koo.
