  • research
  • The design history movement I was assigned was the Isotype movement, which heavily consists of icons to convey a language without words.

  • sketching
  • After researching the icons used in the movement, I sketched a variety of posters using the icons to create a story to be interpreted by the viewer.

  • building
  • Using Adobe Illustrator and InDesign, I created the icons and refined my ideas from my sketch. I also added colors commonly used in the movement.

  • research
  • I began by researching everything there is to know about the Selfridge Air Show along with the history behind the coin and the base itself.

  • sketching
  • After finding out the meanings behind the design elements on the 127th Wing's insignia, I incorporated them into the sketches I did.

  • building
  • Using Adobe Illustrator, I finalized my favorite design using elements and colors that I found to be most important to the history of the base.
