This assignment called for a design addressing an “issue” of our choice. I choose the issue of the ever increasing control large corporations have over, well, everything.

My original idea for this project was to place a tightly spaced list of corporations in the background with the world “unelected officials” on top as a semitransparent overlay in another color. The list of corporations I compiled was about half the length it needed to be for the effect I wanted.

I decided to change my approach and go with a Constructivist style. In the end, I think this is a better fit, due to the political nature of the project. I selected Futura because it fits with the look of Constructivist design, but is also a rather corporate looking typeface and it has many different weights to choose from.
