Lesson 8(continued): Hierarchy

Damn it.  I’ve fallen behind.  I don’t know if this warrants an excuse for my lateness but I have been designing things for other people and other events, cousin’s birthday invitations and brochures for the facilities commission.

But yeah…

Now onto the lesson.  In hierarchy, there is rank, rank of what’s important, who is important, what areas are important.  Hierarchy is in our day to day lives.  Our family, our education, the transportation systems we use, the things we buy, all are hierarchical.  So basically what I learned:

• hierarchy: order of importance within a social group or in a body of text; is expressed through naming systems(so basically, by being named we are in a system of ~)

A designer’s approach to hierarchy shows his/her style.  I’m gonna look back to my past works and see how my style has evolved, how it’s improved, how it hasn’t improved.  If you ever use a phone, a laptop, you’re looking at a designer’s/multiple designer’s works as you scan through the icons and different interfaces.

Apologies for the lateness.  I’ll have to continue to catch up asap!  Or else I’m screwed, so much for working on my commitment to things.  =/.  But I guess prioritization=hierarchical thinking.  So hey, just keeping it relevant.
