Jambo.a look into design

hello.
jambo.
kamusta.
merhaba.




this blog is a bit of everything, love, life, sex, revelations, graphics and beautiful type. Everything a 20yr old student needs :) 


and my tiny obsession with Tom Hanks.  marry me.




Sudden revelation
Im shit at writing. (fanfiction at 14 taught me that sore truth)
and that if you are like me, you want your blog kept secret from those who know you, this is a completely new feeling but maybe some things are best kept away from people who have already known and judged you. Maybe? 


so lets start this bitch off. 


My name is Cangul, the C pronounced as a J. I have an english name as well but thats not as cool. I say 'bro' a lot cause i guess i think im american. 
I think I am the easiest person to please in the world!! for my wedding cake (yes im one of those) i would like them made from Dim Sum, with a chubby Dim Sum bride and groom on top. if you dont know, check it 
I am also addicted to shit tv. but only realise i feel guilty when someone walks in and the laptop gets snapped shut. People in my house must think im a sneaky porn addict. 
I cry when i see old people cry, and my heart melts when they eat ice-cream! 




When i was younger I have wanted to be a:

  • Archaeologist
  • Civil engineer
  • Pilot
  • Nurse
  • Volcanologist
  • Graphic designer.
  • briefly a dragon rider (too much reading fantasy books) eugh

Im in a happy and healthy relationship for the first time in 4 years. I like his stubble because it doubles up as a scratching post when i cant be bothered to lift my hand. I don't really want to say anymore then that because know one likes reading about how happy someone is in love, vom. 
sorry if picture to text ratio is a tad poor :(






...


music should be made this way






The Wonder Year. An amazing typographic diary/book created for 2012, the year of the apocalypse.


Does anyone else just think the Mayan civilisation collapsed before they finished their calendar? 
More reason to live our lives to the best of our abilities. We should all take a leaf out of 'Saving Private Ryan'  Mat Damon lives his life as the best man he can be knowing Tom Hanks gave his up to save him. 


We should all act like someone has given their lives for us. oh shit i think thats jesus. i think i stumbled upon religion.






Minimalism/laziness?





Minimalism has always been a style sought after to be designed well and effectively. As a designer I would like to believe designs don't need to be complicated to be good, and most of the time the simpler designs have greater impact on you the viewer. 

As a natural pinicity, detailed person I have to force myself not to throw in every idea i have into one design. Hopefully a part of me that will mellow out with time. 

I love the two designs above. Simple yet creative and playful. What i think is great examples of designs!

For some reason my internet has died and won't upload more pictures.wah. 

Post soon.
