As part of their work-related learning, Link 3 have been studying graphic design, with a particular focus on logo creation. Each student was tasked with designing their own extreme sports brand logo, developing it from the initial concept through to the final design, all of which was documented in their sketchbooks.
Their finished logos are to be printed onto T-shirts; this is showcase how their designs would appear in the real world.
Over the 9-week course, the students learned about the five basic principles of graphic design and what it takes to create a strong, distinctive logo.
As part of Link 3’s graphic design journey, they also had the opportunity to visit Reactive Design Ltd., a Hartlepool-based graphic design studio. Andrew and Stuart were extremely welcoming and answered all of the students’ questions about the industry.
