In this case the cubs are replaced with the ROMA characters which can then be related that the wolf is guarding the city of rome as its symbol also.

Quick exploration and sketch for a friendly passer by.

Sketch logo: Wolf and Rome

A good enough reason to be really frustrated. They totally f*cked everything up. The last ounce of creativity that could be there was stripped away by 50 or more examples of what we must NOT make. No type that is too square, none that is too high, the ascending line between A must not be too low, it should not be bold. Then she said ok we will be doing CLASSIC either TIMES or ARIAL linear, like even if you wanted to do something different you can’t. Fcuk like the only lessons that I thought would be good this semester and they killed even those. Thanks university for killing the creativity in me.

It usually says how much grams should you weigh per average person, but who actually bothers with that.

The idea is to visually sign the big 1kg packages for rice or pasta. Make them maybe higher and thinner and then just draw lines like a visual measuring aid that represent how much is needed for one normal person. So you just lean the packet to pour rice out and you see when you are at the line and you have enough rice for one person.
