Reflection
With this being the first assignment where we began with a new blank document, I took it as an opportunity to experiment and see if what I had in my head could be created using my limited knowledge of InDesign tools. I wasn’t familiar with the program yet, but we had several lectures from our instructor introducing us to many of the basic functions. I wanted each box to be unique, but for the whole design to feel cohesive.
