WK 11 Contrast

1.

I found this product under the google search term of "cool product". It uses a very strong contrast of color of black woofer rims with white background on the both side of the speakers. The pink rim around the speaker units are also nicely color contrast with the white background. The main unit volume control in pink is also color contrast with the white background color.The speakers are juxtaposition to each others that are contrast in scale. The main unit (center) is the biggest out of the three. The two side speakers are smaller than the main unit in the center and they are the same size. I won't able to judge the scale in size without big and small, and also if there are not juxtaposition and place side by side to each others.

I found this printer has poorly contrast. The keys is numbering in white that contrast with the black background. The white numbering is so small in contrast with the black background plates that is very vague and not clear for the user to use. The grey display screen is surrounded with the black background plate that is poorly contrasted with each others. The switches on the left is color in black that is also poorly contrast with the black plates. The numbering pad on the right is also in black with the black backing plates that is poorly contrast in color.

Find TWO (2) examples of design that relate to your planned course of study/profession, i.e. industrial design or visual communication design. ONE design example must demonstrate an effective use of contrast contributing to a successful design. The OTHER design example must demonstrate a lack of or poor use of contrast contributing to a failed design. For each of the 2 examples, post at least one image and at least 6 sentences that identify and explain how the use of contrast is contributing to success or failure. Make sure you identify the post with "Week 11 CONTRAST" at the top of the post.Note: The contrast may be operating in ANY aspect of the designed work, but you must identify what aspect that is. NOTE: This exercise is an opportunity to apply the concepts and terms from the reading and lecture and thereby show that you understand them. Go over the reading and lecture BEFORE selecting your images and that will make it easier to discuss them.
