Gallo Nero Restaurant Space- Explanation
The space I have created for Gallo Nero was a two- floor restaurant. In the restaurant, the elements which are included are sofas and tables, counter, glass windows and doors, spiral staircase, chandelier, and wine rack. The colors are mostly red, orange, dark brown and light brown; this is my color scheme for Gallo Nero. On the table, the menu that I made for Gallo Nero is put. Also the floors are wooden which fits my color scheme and the restaurant. The chandeliers are put to make the restaurant look more luxurious and the windows and doors are glass/ transparent to attract people by allowing them to look in the restaurant and to also make the restaurant an open space.

Idpure magazine article- Onitsuka- Tiger in the soul
Written by: Aylin Sallin-Toker
Summary of the Article:
In Japan, Onitsuka Tiger offers a “beautiful roar”. This shoe company was found in 1949 and for the last 50 years, all they decided to concentrate on was technology rather than marketing. So, for the next 50 years the founder said that they will concentrate on marketing. This company first saw international success in the year 1951and an Ethiopian runner Abebe Bikila who ran bear foot accepted to wear this company’s shoe to continue in gold medal in 1964 and 1968 Olympic games. This became the symbol of the brand and signature. All that was missing from this company was strong marketing; there was a recent opening of the first Onitsuka Tiger Store in Switzerland.

Idpure magazine article- Retro- futurist photography
Written by: Joël Vacheron
Summary of the Article:
Photography is a “mirror of reality” and in terms of advertizing, it is defined as a “magnifying glass”. The meaning of photography can be defined as a “magnifying glass”. This is that photography enlarges at a certain time the trends and aspirations of a society. In numerous contemporary works, causes such as veiled references, discreet borrowings or vulgar plagiarism happen although the end product is different. This might be because of lack of originality or search for proficiency.
Retro- futurist esthetic is a period when there was Flash Gordon and Barbarella and when the nylon strings supporting the space ships were obviously visible. Retro-futurism isn’t represented in photography by an obvious way. It suggests the phoney and anachronic character of the universes created by advertising and some contemporary artists. Photographic retro-futurism shows heightened reality which doesn’t represent any particular period.

The idea of glittering letters and cars, and attractive girls are the elements which from this graphic art. In esthetics, the word ‘coarse’ includes productions which do not look back reflectively on discipline.

The laborious cut-outs, unlikely juxtapositions, large fonts with luminous brilliance have turned into visual codes of this idea. The writer at the end mentions that coarse art will always be a source of inspiration and this will be something which will continue to impact its influences in the future graphic arts and conventions.
