InDesign Examples :

Business Flyer

For my Sawdust festival advertisement I chose to use only the colors that were shown on the festival’s website just to maintain the same feel when people decide to go to the site. I put the logo at the top of the page in the center and used a design that was mostly unaligned for the rest of the text in the ad. This is to try and give across a more artsy feel to the poster. I made the website URL at the bottom of the page really stand out because the most important information on the ad nowadays is how to get to the website.

Calendar

On my calendar I used a very simple design with the Manchester United logo on the right side of the image being balanced by having the name of the month and the coupons on the left side of the screen. I chose the colors for each month fairly arbitrarily but with the intention of high contrast. The coupons are just a small part of the overall design and I feel they do not take away from it.

Restaurant Logo

The menu I designed is pretty simple in design using white as the primary background color with only the purple from the logo making an appearance anywhere else. I designed the first page of the menu so that all of the items on the menu would fit on it, except for the special page which has a page all for itself and the celebrity photo. For the headers of each type of item on the menu i.e. Burgers, Sandwiches, Appetizers etc. are all centered and colored purple above the items. The items themselves are oriented to the left of the text box with the prices on the right.
