Type 2 Journal Entry

In Stefan Sagmeister's video he spent the majority of the time talking about other people's designs and how he felt about them or what they did for them. I liked when he talked about the designs that made him happy. From far away they would probably look like any other design found in subways but when looked at up close they are new and funny.

I also watched Theo Jenson and J.J. Abrams video. Theo Jenson's work was pretty fascinating especially the way his pieces moved. J.J. Abrams talked a lot about what inspires him. Mystery seemed to be the key inspiration for his projects.

How Good is Good?
Its interesting how many feelings designs evoke and what all a design can do. Designs can bring up someone's spirits, back up a cause, make places safer, inform people, and raise money.
