Graphic images are an important
rt of everyone’s life, says Mostafa
weedy, Texas A&M environmen-
design professor.
People don t identify much with
>rds,” Howeedy said. “They iden-
y with a Coca-Cola sign or the
ayboy bunny.”
This is why Howeedy assigned his
sign media II classes to design
[eirown stationery and logos.
J'Every person has to identify
?1 js foi imself in the world.” Howeedy
Id. “I gave this assignment to
rm my students up, to teach
m to make decisions graphically,
anted them to make a design to
iress themselves.”
[The stationery and logos are on
play in the lobby of the Ernest
mgford Architecture Center until

utlPuyee, designed stationery and a

(ying Daniel’s design to use as a
siness logo.
Design media II (Environmental
Design 212) was created two years
ago to expose students to verbal and
graphic communication. Professors
in the architecture department
reali zed that Texas A&M design
students were weak in their graphic
ability, Howeedy said.
Design media II is open to both
environmental design majors and
non-majors. Ninety-six students are
enrolled in Howeedy s classes this
semester.
“Anyone can take this class and do
well in it. Howeedy said. “It helps
very much with visual aids.
“Drawing is not a gift. It must be
developed. A student must coordi
nate his mind, his eyes and his
hands,’ Howeedy said.
In environmental design, a stu
dent should learn to sell his ideas
without talking. He must draw his
ideas and fit them to the needs and
abilities of people, Howeedy said.
