I like how you played with “Article 25”. I think it’s a very creative way to place it on the photo. The font chosen looks sophisticated and clean. The photo is beautiful, but how do you feel about removing the background behind the longer text? in Article 25 you had a border around the characters, what did that look like when you tried it with the other text? I’m assuming you bolded it for visibility, but the font has so much dignity (which is the underlying mood given by the photo and text) that I think it kind of mutes the power behind it.
Hey Marshaye! I like the photo you chose. It’s a very strong picture showing why we need human rights. It is sad that sometimes we are unable to provide basic human rights to people. Coming towards the font you chose for conveying the message of the article I think it fits well it has the necessary boldness to advocate for the cause. I also liked the message placement as it does not cover anything significant, and the text is readable.
I like how you combined Article and 25 to have them overlap with the two different types of font faces. I also like how the description pops from the page, showing how important it is to have adequate housing. I also like how the main focus of the picture is on the edge, you really have space to have the text to be the center while the focus is still directed to the image even though it’s not centered. I like how both the person in the photo is centered with the text, it’s symmetrically pleasing to look at!
