Design developments

I initially planned my booklet out in my note pad to get some sort of idea of how many pages I would need/ what information to include. 




The design I created originally was very simple and neutral as I wanted it to look professional and educational. However I found this style a bit boring and wanted something that would encourage people to read it rather than have them throw it away.

I looked at adding colour and started playing around with adding lines of colour to make it subtle and used it to highlight the headings. 














I then thought about how this could look like lines from a sports hall court and decided to expand on this idea. 



I created more interesting patterns with the lines to make the page more appealing. I used the to add direction and move the readers eyes along the pages. 



I then added more coloured lines and overlapped them to make it look more like the lines shown in the image of the sports hall, they over lap and go in different directions.



I played around with using multiple colours to reference the many different sports played in a sports hall as this would relate to the different sports women play. However this looked messy and I thought it looked too childish so I decided to scrap this idea. Instead I stuck with the three primary colours: red, blue and yellow.



After playing around with the design for a while chose to increase the font size for the headings to make them stand out more. I also played around with the lines and made text boxes and boxes around the images to make them link into the design better. I also chose to get rid of the black rectangle behind the page numbers as I wanted to create more white space.

I chose to use a colour images throughout the booklet as well as I think they link better to the colours used throughout with the patterns  


 








I chose to display the image on the contents page as I had a lot of text to fit in the 'why sue these guidelines section' and I didn't want to miss anything important out.
