DESIGNED BY LEONATE

Sketch:

Color Palette:
Triad Harmony

Design Rational:
The core design concept is that using the cardiogram to present the timeline. Actually this is the most di cult part in my entire design processes. When thinking about timeline, the formations are quite limited in the traditional line model. Thus, I changed my thought to something can present the life. Then I get the inspiration from the cardiogram and it turned out to be a great t. Starting from brainstorming the concept to present a timeline of an artist, I I established the whole framework based on my sketch. And the remained things became much easier. I just put all the artworks in the artboard, dividing by the years, and then tried to gour out the best layout. Putting all the titles or words with them and give appropriate colors was the last step. The typeface I used is called Eurostile. This font is commonly used in some consoles or terminals. Because I want the font here to be consistent with the cardiogram concept, I was seeking for fonts with machine screen output looking. And the style of Eurostile is exactly what I was looking for. The color harmony here is Triad Harnony and it may actually contain two triad harmonys. The green color was rst decided because it is the most common color of a cardiogram. Other colors are selected mostly to distinguish the contents of di rerent years. Thus, triad harmony would be a good choice I think.
