DZine’d How did you decide on the color scheme of black and white? Was it like night/day, black/white, war/peace?
DZine’d Can you describe the process you went through to produce this piece (concept through execution)?
Chandler Initially the piece was going to involve color – a camouflage palette for the WAR side and shades of Purple on the PEACE side. I give credit to Sylvia for toying around with the design and flipping the colors on her computer to a black background with white lettering. We both knew right away that was the best solution, the words just seemed to pop. From a design and conceptual perspective it also made sense as black is often used in the military and is associated with death. I love the color black so I was all for it. We also pushed our instructors to allow us to paint an entire wall black.
Chandler A lot of back and forth sharing ideas and concepts between Sylvia and myself before, during, and after our design classes. We talked a lot before designing anything. Once we solidified our concept and chose to separate the design between the two of us we worked on the actual design process for about a week. Fitting the smaller lettering tightly together to form the bigger words was extremely tedious and took a few weeks to mesh the two sides together once we finished our individual portions. We worked with an outside vendor to produce the piece once the design was finished. We then had to take a few days to paint the space, making sure we had an even coat of paint on the wall. Once that was finished we locked the piece in place on the wall.
Sylvia The black and white definitely was not the first idea – it was the last option we had decided to try out, and when we saw it, we loved it. It made more sense on every level to have it this way instead.

Opera for Beggars
Sylvia And in our exploration of “war” and “peace,” we chose not to seek to (re)define these terms, but to look at what has already been said concerning them, what people already believe these two notions to be. As we continued looking into the subject, we saw how broad notions of war and peace were and how loaded the terms were — they can mean such different things to different people. 15

So what interested us was figuring out what others have believed and said about war and peace throughout history and during contemporary times and compiling all of that together. There are many contradictions and the subject is very complex – we wanted to capture that complexity. We first solidified our idea and made sure we both understood what we wanted to communicate. We then spent weeks discussing what form it would take, asking a ton of questions: How do we want the viewer to interact with it? Would it be a 3-dimensional piece or a flat piece? What materials would we use to construct the words? How big? WHY? What is actually feasible to create, considering our time and skill sets? Having “war” and “peace” constructed out of words was definitely not the first idea we came up with. But when we decided on this (after many conversations), the next step was to actually to start seeing if we could make it happen. And Chandler explained the rest of the process from there. In short, we spent a lot of time fitting all the words and letters together, so that all the little spaces were nicely addressed.
DZine’d It looks like it was really challenging to design this, were some aspects of this project more challenging than others and what were they? Chandler We really wanted our design to be tight – so we worked the hard on our typography making sure it as seamless as possible. That was the most challenging part. Sylvia I have to say that the part that was most challenging was when we had both finished constructing our individual words and we had to combine them to make them one coherent piece – where “WAR” flows and meshes into “peace” to visually communicate “War is Peace.”

First Impressions AIGA Emerge 2010 Opening Reception
N
ervous, excited, anxious, you name it, I was feeling it as I walked up to the opening reception of the AIGA Emerge Student Exhibition 2010 at the Pacific Design Center, located in West Los Angeles, California on Melrose Avenue. The Pacific Design Center where the exhibition was held was impressive and intimidating all at the same time. The architecture and surroundings convey design of all types when you see it. The interior is equally as impressive and has a very sophisticated feeling to it. Dressed up, but not wearing a full suite, I felt underdressed and over-dressed at times. Some people were wearing suits and others were wearing surf shirts and flip flops. Quite a diverse crowd of people, but I was told that the design community was an eclectic type of folk. This was my first experience at an AIGA event since becoming a member and I wasn’t sure what to expect. Left: Front entrance of the Pacific Design Center. Above: top: Front courtyard of the PDC. middLe: Interior of the PDC main floor. bottom: Escalators up to the Emerge Exhibit.

Being a person who rarely goes to L.A., just getting to the exhibition was very nerve racking for me. The unknown and the unfamiliar the reasons being. Being a creature of habit, this was definitely out of my comfort zone. As I walked toward the suite where the exhibition was being held, (suite B257 on the second floor), I saw a small group of people gathered together and talking to each other. As I entered I said hello and walked into the exhibition’s main room where my poster was on display. I checked out the surroundings and continuing into the gallery’s back rooms of the exhibit to see if any of my classmates were here, but no one was., I had arrived early, about 4:30 p.m. The opening did not officially start until 5:00 p.m., so the night was young. In the back of my mind I kept thinking, how am I going to find the design students who did the pieces that I liked. In a way, knowing this kind of put a damper on my evening because I could not just enjoy myself and take in the experience, but instead I knew that I had to take photos of the opening reception for the ezine (DZine’d) and find the design students who’s work I liked that I wanted to talk to (interview).

DZine’d Was your piece created as a class project, or was it designed specifically to be in the AIGA Emerge 2010 exhibition?
DZine’d What school are you studying at? Chandler / Sylvia USC Roski School of Fine Arts
DZine’d Is there any particular field of design that interests you the most or would like to do if you could?
DZine’d What are your Major/Minors?

DZine’d What year are you in?
First, let me congratulate you on your piece at the exhibition, it
Chandler / Sylvia Senior – Graduate in May!!
is really nice! It is beautiful to look at and engages the viewer to look closer at it, which reveals all the words and statements that are related to war and peace. Your piece invokes an emotional response when you look at it. Everyone knows what war is and everyone wants peace, so people can relate to it immediately.
DZine’d Do you feel that your school is preparing you adequately for a professional career when you graduate? Chandler Definitely. The professors in the design program at USC all have professional industry experience and have done a great job preparing me for the challenges that lie ahead working in the design world after school. Sylvia Yes, the professors at Roski have a genuine passion for both design and teaching, and as Chandler said, also have established design practices and many years of industry experience. They have taken many steps to prepare us for working professionally outside of school, but what I appreciate even more is the insight and wisdom they have shared with us on living life in general.

DZine’d Do you feel collaborating is important when designing or do you prefer to work on projects alone? DZine’d Is creating an emotion connection or reaction to a design piece something you think about when your designing? Chandler Yes. It was especially important for us in this piece. We wanted to not only create something visually interesting but something that sent a powerful message to viewers as well. Our intent was not to influence them as to what our beliefs are on the subject, but rather to evoke emotions inside of them and hopefully a passion to care in WHATEVER it is they actually believe. Aside from this piece I do think it’s important to create an emotional connection with viewers. Design conveys emotion. The choices you make as a graphic designer are not arbitrary so its imperative to be aware of the message you are trying to send and think of the best ways to do this when approaching a project. Sylvia Yes. I believe in asking questions. Hopefully, with this piece, there was a giant question mark looming when the audience viewed and interacted with design – a question mark that perhaps led to a desire to understand what the piece was about, and beyond that, a desire to explore for themselves what war and peace meant to them.
Chandler Yes. Collaboration is always helpful, getting feedback and seeing your project from someone else’s perspective is never a bad thing. You don’t always have to heed their advice or criticism! What’s important is to be comfortable collaborating. In a school setting I feel it is beneficial for students to collaborate so they learn how to interact with other designers in the creative process. It isn’t always necessary however, I enjoy putting on my headphones, tuning others out, and designing on my own as well. Sylvia Life is no fun without collaboration! If given the choice, I would much rather work with someone else than alone (even if working with the other person turns out to be really painful – suffering only makes us stronger. I enjoy seeing how others address and solve issues differently from how I do. There is so much to learn from others!
DZine’d Were both of you satisfied with the final product, or were there some things that you wished you could have done differently if any?
DZine’d Do you think your design was successful?
Chandler I was very satisfied and confident in our work with this project. There is ALWAYS room for improvement for myself as a designer, but at the same time I take pride in things I’ve done and feel like this project was very successful.
Sylvia Can I really answer this question? I think this is for the audience to answer.
Chandler Definitely.
DZine’d What are your plans for the future after graduation?
Chandler Both entertainment design and apparel design. I’ve worked in both facets of the industry and have had very positive experiences. Would like to work towards art direction in either of those specific fields of design.
Chandler Not really. I don’t think a good design school necessarily makes a good designer. I’m very confident in my education from a design standpoint and also feel like I’ve received a very well rounded University education as well.
Chandler Immediately after – Traveling for a month through South East Asia and China. When I touch back down on U.S. soil – Figure out how to make some $$$!
Sylvia I am most interested in editorial and book design. But really, I am interested in anything that deals with typography and a lot of text. I love organizing information.
Sylvia Nothing more exciting than full-time work to appease the parents!
DZine’d Do you have any favorite professional designers out there today that you admire?
Sylvia I have, primarily because our design program is much smaller than the programs at major art schools. Perhaps our program is lacking in some areas, but despite its shortcomings, I believe that Roski’s design program also offers its students what other art schools may not. For instance, because Roski is one of many schools of disciplines at USC, we have the opportunity to collaborate and work with students in other fields of study, including the Business and Engineering schools, on larger interdisciplinary projects.
Chandler There was some extremely quality design work in the EMERGE show. I feel very strongly that our piece was right up there with the best.
Chandler Since 2005.
Chandler Was a fun night! Great turnout, lots of cool people roaming around.
31
Chandler I had actually never stepped foot in PDC since I’ve lived in Los Angeles. The building is impressive and also a great place for artists and designers to showcase their work.
Sylvia Yep.
Sylvia I had never been to PDC previously. I found the building pretty impressive – and I wanted to show my mom when I first saw it. My mom doesn’t understand what I do, and I figured that if she could see that my work was being displayed in such a nice building, she would be more comfortable with my chosen career.
21
DZine’d Anything else you would like to say or add that I have not asked you, or that I may be missing or overlooking, or that I should have asked you in relationship to your design piece?
Sylvia We both collaborated and shared research with each other, but when it came down to really populating some of the areas of the design with more text, we did do independent research.

My Expressionistic Poster
About 7:00 p.m. the acknowledgement and awards presentation began. Everyone congregated into the suites largest room. AIGA kicked it off, speaking first and presenting a scholarship. Professors from each of the Los Angeles Design schools presented a scholarship winner to a student from their respective school. It was really crowded and I couldn’t see or hear much. From our school, CSUDH, the scholarship winner was Alex Salvattiera, one of my classmates from whom I met for the first time in a Sources of Graphic Design class we took at CSUDH in the Fall ‘09 semester. (Interview with Alex included in this volume.)
My poster on exhibit at the AIGA Emerge 2010 Exhibition was

So, as the opening reception was about to end and I was on my way out of the gallery, I noticed a guy was standing by the typographic design I really liked. It turns out that he was one of the two designers that created the piece. We briefly talked, we exchanged numbers and that was that. Somehow, everything worked out. The whole evening was a valuable experience and something I will always remember as being a part of, thanks to all of my design professors at CSUDH.

Chandler Very much so. We helped each other with research and ideas for the text that was used in the piece. We pulled quotes from presidential speeches, influential quotes, songs, books, religious text, and other sources. We also used military acronyms and other words that provoked thought and evoked emotion.
DZine’d Had you ever been to the Pacific Design Center before and what are your impressions of it (PDC)?
Chandler Yes. It is crucial to learn as soon as possible how the survive in the professional world of design.
20
DZine’d Did you both research war and peace or did each of you concentrate on an individual word?
Sylvia I couldn’t make it.
DZine’d Would you recommend AIGA to others?
Sylvia AIGA provides some pretty great resources to student designers, and I must say that it’s really nice having a tight-knit group of design enthusiasts congregate together at school to discuss things no one else understands.
As 5:00 came, the gallery was really started to fill up and was getting hot. There was food and beverages at no cost which was really nice considering it costs $12.50 for parking. Some people from school started showing up. We talked, mingled and ate, discussing the designs and the exhibition. Time was flying by.
11
DZine’d What did you think of the opening reception (impressions)?
Chandler It has helped me to stay connected to the design community and also get a sense of the work that others are involved in. I’ve definitely learned a lot about professions within graphic arts and the history of graphic design as well.
I was thinking to myself, was one of the people that were standing at the front of the suite a designer of one of the pieces that I liked? Knowing that I wanted to interview the designers of a couple pieces that I really liked for this ezine (DZine’d), I walked back up front and asked if anyone among them knew the designer of the fairly large typographic piece that took up an entire wall on the right hand side of the gallery when you first walk in on the right, that read WARpeace. A woman from the group immediately spoke out and said yes, they are students of mine and said that it was a collaborative piece by two of her student at USC, but they were not here yet.
10
DZine’d How long have you been affiliated with AIGA?
Sylvia Freshman year of college… so I would say 2006.
Sylvia It was really funny in the beginning because we both knew we wanted to do a large scale typography project, and when we were exploring what messages we would like to communicate and what words we would like to use, Chandler was proposing bleak ideas that dealt with death and mortality, while I proposed more positive ideas that dealt with beauty. At one point he responded to my ideas saying, “Well, our project can’t just be something that says ‘Love is lovely.’” But when 1984 came up, a book we had both mentioned we liked, “War is Peace” just worked perfectly – here was a binary we could both work within.
Sylvia And in our exploration of “war” and“peace,” we chose not to seek to (re)define these terms, but to look at what has already been said concerning them, what people already believe these two notions to be. As we continued looking into the subject, we saw how broad notions of war and peace were and how loaded the terms were — they can mean such different things to different people. So what interested us was figuring out what others have believed and said about war and peace throughout history and during contemporary times and compiling all of that together. There are many contradictions and the subject is very complex – we wanted to capture that complexity.
Sylvia In no particular order: Anthony Zinni, Lorraine Wild, Anne Burdick, the designers behind GOOD magazine, among others.

Chandler Sylvia and I are very good friends and have worked in Design classes together since 2008. We often ask each other for advice on projects and have worked collaboratively before. We share a passion for design and have very similar tastes, but at the same time we also have pretty different personalities and outlooks on certain issues. When the concept evolved for our project it was a no brainer that I took WAR and she took PEACE.
Chandler The initial idea stemmed from George Orwell’s famous novel 1984. One of the 3 main tenets of his totalitarian world was “WAR IS PEACE” playing on the notion that keeping peace on the home front requires being at war somewhere else. We really thought about this statement – how it is still very true today, and the implications that come with it. Does war actually bring peace? Can peace be achieved without war? Questions such as these interested us so we attempted to dive deeper and explore the concept further.

Sylvia I believe I am very fortunate to be able to participate in this group show, having our piece displayed alongside so many great designs.
Sylvia Hahha, this question is funny. Anyone who knows me knows I am never satisfied. But I have decided that I can’t always live in dissatisfaction, so I’ve made several negotiations with myself – and what I mean by this is I talk myself into being satisfied with what I make. So to answer your question: Yes, I am satisfied. I believe Chandler and I both gave it our best. I believe we have a solid message we both believe in and executed with as much precision as we could both muster. And I believe that we provided some pretty decent solutions to the problems we encountered while working on this project. If I could do anything differently… well, I could go into great detail here about some of the finer details of the visual execution… but I won’t.

THE STORY OF A MURDERER
Jean-Baptiste Grenouille clings to life with an iron will, growing into a dark and sinister young man who, although he has not scent of his own, possesses an incomparable sense of smell. Never having known human kindness, Grenouille lives only to decipher the odors around him, the complex swirl of smells—ashes and leather, rancid cheese and fresh-baked bread—that is Paris. He apprentices himself to a perfumer, and quickly masters the ancient art of mixing flowers, herbs, and oils. Then one day he catches a faint whiff of something so exquisite he is dertermined to capture it. Obsessed, Grenouille follows the scent until he locates the source—a beautiful young virgin on the brink of woman-hood. As his demented quest to create the “ultimate perfume” leads him to murder, we are caught up in a rising storm of terror until his final triumph explodes in all of its horrifying consequences. Told with dazzling narrative brilliance, Perfume is a hauntingly powerful tale of unnatural passion and sensual depravity.
PERFUME
I
n the slums of 18th-century Paris a baby is born and abondoned, passed over to monks as a charity case. But the monks can find no one to care for the child—he is too demanding, and doesn’t smell the way a baby should smell. In fact, he has no scent at all.

Resistance. USB Flash drives are very resistant to scratches and other kinds of unintentional mechanical damage. They are also protected against dust penetration. These strong points give them substantial advantage if compared with their predecessors, such as compact and floppy disks. This is due to their rigid plastic or metal case. It makes them ideal for transporting data. Comfort. It is very convenient to use a USB flash drive on modern PCs because it fits almost all devices that have a USB port and the necessary device drivers. Storage.

I’m sure that you will find that all of your expectations will not only be met, but will be exceeded Mrs. Smith in the cost savings as well as well as the quality of plants. As agreed upon based on our meeting, the project will take approximately two weeks to complete. John had mentioned that the backyard would be accessible through the gate on the south side of your property if you are not home when we arrive. We will make sure that the gate is locked at the end of each work day. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to contact me personally at 310-920-6124.

Annuals are plants that live for a year or less based on Latin 'annus', meaning ‘year’. Annuals are also known as seasonal flowering plants which flower only for three to four months. They are normally grown through seeds. They grow, flower, make more seeds and die, within a year. Annuals are great for creating instant effect and adding color to your garden.
A plant that takes two years to grow from seed to fruition, bloom and die or a plant that lasts two years is a biennial, based on Latin 'biennis' meaning ‘two years’. These are also seasonal flowering plants that flower only in the second year of planting. After blooming, they don’t perform well the following year or become untidy and then dies. To have blooms year after year with biennial flowers, you have to plant seeds every year.
The Latin 'perennis' means ‘many years'. Perennials are those flowering plants that last longer and keep on flowering. Most take two years until they are old enough to bloom. Examples are Bleeding Heart, Water Lily, Gerberas, Geraniums, Anthuriums etc. Once you plant them there is no need for replanting year after year. But they are not a good option, if you want to change the layout of the garden frequently.
Shrubs are woody plants smaller than trees, having a short stem with branches near the ground. Shrubs can be Flowering and Ornamental. Flowering shrubs are those that flower almost through out the year and will have bushy shape and size. Ornamental shrubs or Ornamentals are those which will not flower but are best for their evergreen foliage, shapes and ornamental look. These can be trimmed or trained into various shapes and sizes.
w h o l e s a l e n u r s e ry
Trees can be flowering trees, fruit trees, shade trees, etc. Trees take a number of years to mature. In the first year, remove weak or unruly shoots. In the second or third year remove poorly spaced branches, leaving alone the central trunk. Once they settle, trees need to be watered only once in a while. But the watering should be deep and applied directly to the soil.
