YUI assignment project!; Final Assignment on Semester.

Yea, after a long hiatus posting at this forum section, AditZ' back here!

This time, I'm bringing YUI as a theme in my semester final project, subject: Typography. I was given assignment to make a font (times new roman, arial etc.) and I made myself a font. Its name is Aquarian: version .1 normal. The font has finished:

Yea, thats the font I made. With this font, we were asked to make 5 applications using this font. One of my application theme is YUI. So, I made:

1. CD cover
2. Concert/Live Tickets
3. Flyer

The project theme is Atlantis. My font was typical of font which can be used mostly as bodytext as well as display type. And one character that I used from my font is "curve" and "wave". The best combination of those 2 characters I think is "water" & "sea". Thats why I came up with Atlantis

With that I decided to make a water related YUI's CD cover. Fortunately, the new YUI's pics on her offficial site realy matched up the image I have in mind. Inspiration I got from the Volvic site someone posted in the news section. "Damn its exactly as I want it to be!"

I mixed both YUI's images and the sea photograph I got from google. Then no need to say any further....here THEY ARE!

But anyway, I would pay ten times more to see Yui for real... (Perhaps I exagerated, 1000$... :swt )


Once more, great job AditZ

hey Aditz...great job there.... definitely deserving of a distinction.... never mind your designs (lol... just joking)... but how could anyone not give a distinction to anything that has YUI in it.... omg! they'd have to be blind... lolz...

but your designs were already top notch...hmm...

so, top notch designs + YUI = pwnage!

all the best yea...?


include me in your "bash the teacher project" if the need arises.... muahahaha....

Aditz, your typeface looks similar to Cronos Pro!

I love how your left strokes of the lowercase letters open, so the counter blends into the negative space. Nice.

So, are you a graphic design major? Because I'm studying graphic design at college too, but I still have another year to go because I'm missing 3 electives to graduate in the summer.

However, I'm going to finish my thesis project which is similar to your term project except it's for the entire year, and I'm working on creating a fictional city tennis tournament.


Here's my critique, hopefully it'll help you out:
Your use of gradients, colour and layout is superb. The photos of YUI really works well within your grid layout.

The 'Altantis' logo looks a bit pixelated. Unless that's the effect you were going for. For the tickets, it's a bit hard to read the prices, especially the $100 ticket. The kearning for your text is a bit tight, but beside that, these are great print designs!


Good luck with your project! :)

Thanx for the comments and critics. Those are the problem I'm facing. Like 100 USD price, I can't help that :P If I changed it, it will be different from the other three. :) Yea, the pixelate effect was done purposedly, I want to make a watery effect so it looks like it's a water reflect. Thanx for the kerning input, I'll have to overlook it again.

Btw, its great to know another grapic designer here. :) You're at the third year. Same as me. ;) I would love to see your fictional city tennis tournament. Hehehe...

Btw, your sig is cool, you made that 3D effect yourself?

Graphic designers rule! Haha. Sorry I just had to type it :lol:

I'm actually in my 4th year, but my school changed the requirements, and now I'm missing a few courses to graduate this coming April.

You could try this for your $100 ticket:
- Leave "First Class as it is, just flush right it so it'll align with the "100US$"
- Move "Backstage meeting with YUI" to another line (seperate line, but in 2 or 3 point size smaller

So, it'll be something like this:
100US$ (flushed right)
First Class (flushed right)
(Backstage meeting with YUI) <--smaller size, of course


By the 3d-effect, were you referring to the red square? Or the photograph? The red logo is my chinese name stamp that was made in China. The stamp imprint is actually a photograph that was taken at an angle on a white sheet of paper. Click here.

I just resized it small. The guitar headstock is my acoustic, with new strings which I changed two days ago, so I gave the strings a curly hairdo.
