ASSIGNMENT: Design Era Pinterest Boards - Finished
Try to collect a wide variety of images that reflect the design aesthetic,
and try to find contemporary (modern design ) examples as well as period (from the era) examples.
You can add to your boards all semester.
For example, if you chose Art Deco, you might try to find both the interiors and exteriors of Art Deco buildings, but you could also search for Art Deco clothing, hairstyles, food, vehicles, furniture, household products, font/typefaces, design elements, and jewelry. Try searching for quotes or philosophies representing the Art Deco era.
You can find contemporary examples of the aesthetic as well as historical/period examples: modern T-shirts, shoes, nail art, tattoos, wedding cakes, living rooms, brand logos, makeup, and webpages are all still inspired by the Art Deco look!

Reminder:
An 'era' is a period of time where the design aesthetic across genres has clear similarities.
Medieval, Renaissance, Brutalist, Modernist, Minimalism, Scandinasian, etc. are all 'eras' which have a distinct look.
A 'genre' is a type of art/design, such as painting, sculpture, architecture, product design, etc.
Poster Art, Car Design, Egyptian Sculpture, Word Art, Anime, Cinema Art, etc., are all styles/genres which can vary widely in their look.
Example: Art Deco Board
Example: Variety of Genres in the Art Deco Board
* You should also create another section in your Design EAP board which represents your personal style or design aesthetic.
Name it 'About Me'. See your teacher's example About Me board here. You can use the images in this board to help build your 'About Me' poster; make sure you have a good variety of things you love!
* You can choose to make other sections which you think will be helpful in this class. For example, your professor's Design EAP board has 'Design Quotes and Philosophies', 'Colours and Combos', 'Foodboard' examples, and more. You should have at least one section that is not a design era, which will be worth 1 % of your final mark.
