I have once again placed my design in the context to see how they communicate and how effective they are in the context. Firstly it is clear that the text and illustrations seem to work better together and the illustrations seem a part of the text. This is because of the combination of colours being the same and the use of a speech bubble seems to give the animals more life.
I found much like the designs before keeping the heights and sizes consistent and the same size of text. I wanted to keep the heights as consistent as possible as would become more and more familiar as the viewer moves through the Tropical World.
The typeface VAG rounded works within the context of Tropical World much more effectively this is due to the more human and natural curves on each letter and the concise readability. This typeface will rescind with both adults and children and not feel at all out of context. This along with the fact each type background is coloured with the illustration and remains readable makes for a much more personal and together designs.
Looking at the designs it is clear they could be made out of a large plastic material possibly vinyl or even laser cut and engraved. I found when scaling the size of each animal that they needed to be at large enough to see from a far yet not so big to be overbearing and distracting.
Overall looking at the two designs in context I feel this second speech bubble design is much more appropriate this is because it is much mire interactive for kids yet remains clear and concise for adults. The use of coloured speech bubbles brings the text together with the designs and is less disconnected. When choosing colours each had to be distinct from each other and be recognisable from further away and I feel this has been done effectively. These designs add much more life to the illustrations and shows the Tropical World in a much more positive light.
