OUGD103- SFE 50 Images of Postcards

Throughout the length of the project i have collected images of inspiration in Leeds, ranging from objects to patterns, type and shape. Here are my final 50 to make into postcards:

Unfortunately i was unable to print off all the postcards as it would cost too much, i got in touch with a printer in leeds and the minimum i would be able to print was 500 postcards for £80. This is for one design and as i have 50 individual postcards i am unable to get them printed. Instead i have printed off 10 using the college printers to show what they would look like and i have included my images on a contact sheet and here on my blog to view.

OUGD103- SFE Final Posters

After the crit with John i have decided to go back to the original idea with the poster as it is more appropriate for my project. i would like to create a few variations looking at image/ type/ type and image.
 Type and image
i think this appears as those inspiration has risen from the city
Type
Using an image of all the buildings to make the type out of, creating detailed type supports the idea of 'look closer' to see what it is made of
Image
I like the top two best, i think the last one is too busy
I think overall the posters work better, they are clean, to the point, more professional looking. the running theme between the three helps to create an image for the concept.
