 CHAPTER 5

                               How I find my niche (part 2)


 Welcome back! In the last chapter, I shared with you how I discovered my passion for design and how I took steps to pursue it. In this chapter, I'll give you an update on my journey and what I'm currently working on.

After clearing the first round of the NID entrance exam and attending the second round in Bangalore, I didn't quite make the cut. But I didn't let that discourage me. I kept pushing forward and applied to several private universities. Luckily, I was accepted into one of them, and I am now pursuing a master's degree in UI/UX design.

It's been a challenging yet rewarding experience so far. I've had the opportunity to learn from experienced professionals in the field and collaborate with other talented students. I've learned about the design process, user research, wireframing, prototyping, and much more.

I've also been exploring various tools and software that are essential for UI/UX designers, such as Figma, Sketch, and Adobe Creative Suite. These tools have helped me bring my design concepts to life and communicate my ideas effectively.

In addition to my coursework, I've also been working on personal projects. This has allowed me to apply what I've learned in a real-world context and build my portfolio. I've designed logos, websites, and mobile apps, which has been both challenging and rewarding.

Through this journey, I've learned that design is not just about making things look pretty. It's about solving problems, understanding user needs, and creating experiences that are both functional and beautiful. It's a continuous process of learning, iterating, and improving.

In my future blog posts, I'll share more about what I've learned so far and how I'm applying it to my work. I hope that my journey will inspire and encourage others who are interested in pursuing a career in design. Stay tuned for more updates, and please share if you find this content valuable.

Chapter 9 All about VID (visual interface design)

 Chapter 9  So, as I was talking about VID (visual interface design) in the previous chapter, VID is nothing but an interface design. As you can see in the picture below Visual interface is a digital interface or UI of any digital screen.  Let me explain with an example : Imagine you're designing a website for a new pizza place. VID, or Visual Interface Design, is like dressing up that website to make it super eye-catching and easy to use, just like choosing the perfect outfit for the pizza place! Here's how it works: Colours and Fonts: Picking the right colours and fonts is like choosing the coolest shirt and pants for the website. You want the colours to be inviting and appetizing, maybe like warm reds and yellows for the pizza theme, and fonts that are clear and easy to read, like a fun, chunky one for the headlines. Layout and Images: Think of this as arranging the furniture in the pizza place. You want the website to be organized, with the menu easy to find (lik...

chapter 11 Dropout

 CHAPTER 11 Dropout  Hello, dear readers! You might have been wondering what's been happening and why there's been a bit of silence on my blog. Well, let's just say that a lot has happened and, at the same time, nothing happened. In my last post, I mentioned that exams were approaching. But here’s the surprise twist: I decided to drop out of my design university. Yes, you read that right. It was a tough decision, but let me explain why it was necessary. First and foremost, I felt that the university wasn't offering the value I had hoped for. I wasn't learning anything new and it felt like a waste of money. To add to that, I fell ill because the hostel water didn't agree with me. My health took a downturn, and I ended up developing lactose intolerance due to the constant sickness over the months. Dropping out was heartbreaking because attending a design university had always been my dream. But the reality was far from what I had envisioned. Those college days wer...
