Really enjoyed this course and it pushed me to think about the application of the design. In this case, I learned a lot about composing spreads for books which was something very new to me.

I really appreciate the listed styles and artist in week 2. It really helps for people who likes modern art but do not know that many excellent artists.

I think some video music need to lower a bit. Cause, can't hear the teacher's voice clearly. Besides this the course is helpful.
