romzyxy:
Thanks. Product design is on it's way for now I just want to be firm Logo designs, work with it for a while before considering product design.

Is product design related to mock up?

Emeraldfynest:
missimelda how is your HNG internship going?

romzyxy:
Hello everyone, many thanks to the person behind this thread. I have gone through the messages and I think I have found a home. Design is complex so we all need one another. I'm not new in design but still learning. For now I can design simple logos. I'm interested in HNG. How do I go about it?

Effulgent:


This is long o..
I'll try to keep it short as possible.

Depending on the brand you are working for, there's something called color psychology, you cant use red for a banking sector and expect people to trust you and like green now denotes life, fertility. etc

read on color psychology and how the color wheel operates, the complementary colors, analogous, triads, etc it will help you when you want to combine them.

first have a base color that defines the brand, then, have like two other colors that goes with it, could be triads. it will be much easier like that.

there will be a base color, a mid one and an accent color, for a start anyway.

then if the brands have their own color, good for you, just find colors that compliments it, you can use Adobe color (a site) to pick colors too.

The current task we’re working on in HNG choke o
I’ve been doing a lot of reading/research and everything is difficult because we don’t have a PM..It’s quite easy to be a UI designer but you see that UX part, it’s hardddddd.

hannahwealth:
Nice thread. I recently bought a comprehensive UI/UX training tutorial vidoes which i just started and i hope to start designing soonest. The vidoes are well explained. I'll be following this thread for update. May God bless our hustle.

WUdec:
For a beginner, this is good.

You have a lot of potential. Just look for a way to design off a Nigerian standpoint.

Always compare your work to Nigerian standards and if they look Nigerian...brush it all off and start all over until you start thinking beyond the box and looking beyond the box

A lot of Nigerian designs lack creativity, whitespace, typography and simplicity. Too much clutter, same colors, bordered or one-style design patterns. They don't like to break the rules.

The best designers in the world design like they are on crack cocaine. Meaning...they design with crazy thoughts inside their heads.

Lastly, have people you look up to. They will give you a lot to live up to.

Look forward to seeing more of your work
