The Importance of Limitations
Presented by Reed Lewis
Working within limits can be difficult. Whether they be imposed by one's self or those around them, limitations can feel like a stunt in a growth.
This assignment, for me at least, felt like one riddled with limitations. From the limited font selection to the small space of 3.5 by 2 inches, I felt a little trapped on this one.
However, as I designed these business cards for my typography class, I learned, slowly but surely, that what I view as limitations were actually challenges to help me grow. When coupled with these guidelines and a creative mind, I had to think in ways that were a bit unconventional for me. Although it wasn't my most favorite thing, this project did end up being a little bit of an eye opener.
So, while you may not get all of that out of the design you see below, I hope you can now better appreciate the story that was unintentionally designed into these little 3.5 by 2 inch cards :)
