Chapter One Plan and research

Chapter One  -  Beginnings of Design over Art

Modernism  - 

How the movement came about and how it influenced constructivism

Constructivism - 

Tsarist rule is over. Bourgeoisie society is gone, so should art for arts sake. Rodchenko, and death to art. Why are needs a purpose and function. Inspiration from the industrial and technological advances Russia had seen. 

How design visually changed - 

Typography - 

New typography movement
Sans Serif, Universal Type - Talk about Germany and Swiss design
Photography/collage - new techniques then - still used now by Ronny Hunger

How the constructivist movement changed propaganda - 

Before proper graphic design Posterists were the main designers
Typeface - block, Sans serif, strong language
Colour - Red for the revolution

There is a lot to look at within this chapter. 2 art movements, typefaces and propaganda. 

Bauhaus are a major influencer in this chapter.
Constructivism is also important, there are a lot of designers that came from this movement that a source of interest.
