Concept Evaluation



In fact designer Martin Yang's logo is real nice work in AGIDEAS. The designer Yang has made a logo that strongly aboriginal culture and modern style together, different graph in logo has different Taiwan aboriginal culture, although logo colour is same, just red, blue, orange. Original a old culture or a old food access this way can give me refreshing. This concept from this logo’s structure and colour. A simple logo bring to me a concise and modern actually, and red, blue, orange that is vigour of colour. At the same time, the classic tradition element like decorate image were been combine so that is very well.
In my opinion,  review all the of product at AGIEDAS, the have same point that  more and more product were concise or strong. I think strongly colour contrast will allow design looks modern, and more creative and simple line, shape or element will allow design more concise and fashion. 

Trends and Designers






This study at AGIDEALS conference I have a discover that is diversity in designer domain involved  paper-cut, kirigami, photograph etc, and technique of expression also different, whatever photo, 3D by computer, workmanship, cartoon. Actully I’m intersting design is from a Taiwan designer Martin Yang that product is national and traditional style. He has design logo, package, shop design and inside in shop design. Observed his work I can get more good ideals. For example, his logo design used very tranditonal element and colour, circular logo and a lot of rhomboid around the logo, that looks like simple and fashion, combine morden and trandition. I think more and more simple design and strongly colour contrust design is a trend in the 2012 AGIDEAS. Designer Martin Yang’s artwork is simple and strong, and typeface also is good as well, and he has together with aboriginal in Taiwan and design. 
  

                               
               


We can show above logo and pattern, that really nice, concise design and element. So I believe designer Yang want follows traditional  and keep traditional as same time to allow traditional become more simple and fashion.
