Design 101: Putting Contrast in Context. For the Studiobanks blog, I wrote this broad, abstractionist introduction to contrast in graphic design. While I’m a little concerned that this is merely the subconscious result of one too many make-the-logo-bigger’s in my life, I enjoyed writing it. I attempted to be informative to readers who are not in advertising or graphic design, and maybe also a bit therapeutic for those professionals who are “beyond” such elementary principles.
