Kungfu



Observation is my inspiration. It makes me feel fun and give me many ideas when I look at it: kungfu is fighting but smooth and fast...

Woman Power



Color and white space is my inspiration. I reference the image of buda for making up the power of woman: strong, beauty, kindness...that build our world besides man.

My book Cover



This is my book cover. I used black and white color for my cover book. My topic is about Etiquette - Business behaviour.

Black and white represent for formal and mystery. I used Courier New and Rosewood Std. The Courier New is very easy to read and the Rosewood Std make me feel formal and secret. The picture represent the path to the success target. But I still feel it miss some thing...

What would you recommend me???

How do you feel after the assignment 3b??? I think this website will be good for you to improve your skill when you design a book cover.

In this website you can view many samples of book cover that are good design. But how pity that they don't teach us how to make a book cover like them.

GOODY Design





I took those pictures at GOODY ice cream shop, 59 Pham Ngoc Thach Street.

The pictures on the wall are very excited, hip hop and natural.

Those two pictures give me a feeling about a beautiful life with fun and happiness

Color is used fix together between hot and cold colors make the room warm and comfortable.

My inspiration about it is that it can be mixed with rock elements and this picture can be used to create a song with lyrics about life, happiness and people.

Besides there are a lots of colorful neon signs that are designed interesting.

You can pass by there and enjoy their design.

RMIT Budha



I took this picture with my friends, we were trying to represent a budha with hundred hands and eyes.

It gave me a lots of meaning when I look at it:
- RMIT students can do many things in creative and new way.
- RMIT students together will be powerful than other students.

It also gives me astrong feeling about a dragon head (the symbol of power) when I look at the guys.

My inspiration about it is from the statue of the budha with thousand hands and some images in games and art that i've seen

Why don't you try to do something like us???

My inspiration is about universe and the connection. Our universe is collections of planet and they orbit around the sun. That balance makes stable universe and in the center is the secret hole of the universe...
