Something Fun about Starbuck Logo

People make fun on Starbuck logo when the new logo come out on 2011 because it is getting simple. This is the photo show about the transformation of Starbucks logo and people make the logo more simple as the time goes by.

2011 Starbuck come out with a logo just only the mermaid women on the middle, they remove the frame and make the logo focus on the mermaid and it look more simple compared to the previous logo. So, people are making fun with Starbuck logo that might be come out on the future, they make the logo more focus, zoom in on the mermaid and finally come out with a empty green circle logo.

It is funny but this won't be happen on the future.

Everything in Wood

I saw these wood sculptures from the internet and likes to share about it. I likes these wood sculptures that create by the artist because it is a very great and beautiful art work. Some of them are really unique and special, everyone of them has its own meaning from its visual expression. It look classic but also modern in the same time.

Amazing Ice Sculptures

Ice sculpting is a difficult task.The artists must work in a freezing environment while concentrating and work hard in order to archive the perfect art work.In such cold condition, they're able to carve out a lot of amazing ice sculptures but these sculptures doesn't last long. Once the winter is over, it will melt and everything will be lost. I also admire the artist because they are so passioned on their works and will do it again with different design each winter, it takes a lot of time and this is not an easy job for most people.

Some of the ice sculpture are really huge and people can go inside to feel and experience the sculpture. Imagine how much time and works they need to carve the sculptures. Their spirits and passion are the good value that we need to learn and apply on whatever we do all the time.

Murphy's Laws in Design

Another topic from the lecturer, " Murphy's laws".

Murphy's Laws - "If anything can go wrong, it will."

From the research that I do about the Murphy's Laws, it is about something bad or negative side of a particular incident will happen on you. I think when it apply on design, it is also the same and everything bad will be possible happen and it will affect the process of your work. Example from the internet about Murphy's Law's that I found out quite funny and it is true that it might be happen.

If you have 10 minutes to print some work before meeting your client, the printer will go out of ink.

When the printer goes out of ink and you are in a rush, you don’t have any cartridges to replace it.

No matter what the size of the logo is, it’s not big enough for your client.

If your WordPress theme validates, you’ll install a plugin that breaks the validation.

If you have a lot of work, a client you didn’t hear of for years will call you and be in a hurry.

If you don’t make your website work in IE6 before showing it to your client, he will be using IE6.

Container as the Content

A topic give by our lecturer, "Container as the Content". From my own understanding, the container and the content is come together. The container itself carry a message which is related to the content message and before people know about the content, they should know some message from the container about the content.

The container should be also a important element to be consider because people will always look at the container first before the content. Everything based on the first sight on the container, after that people will decide to continue or not for the content. Both are bond together in order to deliver the message, a good container always bring good perception for the content. For example, the birthday present, it is always covered by a nice beautiful gift paper(Container) and the birthday person will feel happy when looked at it, and he do not know what is the gift(Content) before he remove the gift paper(Container). The gift paper already give him a very good perception and that is the message the container deliver to him. Then, the content come afterwards.

Billboard

Creative billboard impress people more compared to the normal billboard. The following billboard are creative and also unique in the same time.

Once people see this billboard, they will never forget because the way they create for the whole billboard are brilliant and awesome. When talk about billboard, these type of billboard are always come across my mind.
