Identify 2 different designs and critique them.
Common Fate: The picture with the legs provides a visual direction. The legs are all wearing the same outfit and going in the same direction. I am intrigued. I am wondering where they are going. I also am wondering where the other red color is coming from. Is it a flag? The intended message for the legs picture is to follow us or we lead the way. I do like the design. It looks like they are a team or unit of purpose. I enjoy the team concept. The flooring throws me off a little. The team looks high maintenance, but the floor does not. A more defined flooring would elevate the look.
Proximity: The closeness and alignment of the rings make them look related and intended to be viewed as a group. The distance and size of the people in the lower back portion of the photo provide the viewer with two ideas within the image. The intended message for the ring picture is isolation while being active. The position of the rings looks inviting. It gives me a sense of closeness due to being visually closer than the people are. The design is simple and peaceful. I like the design because there is a distance between actively moving people and people that would be in one place using the rings. The design is calm and tranquil. Working out at the beach means the cool breeze from the water hits me, giving me a tranquil feeling. I wouldn’t change it.
