Our task for this assignment was to make an 8-12 page travel pamphlet to invite our friends to visit my hometown. Our task is to do a quick case study on our hometown and pick one place of interest to study further about that place and explain thoroughly what is in that space. One more task was for us to think of a few future concepts for our hometown or for our place of interest to make it more modern and convenient. The most challenging requirement is to do it manually while only can have 20% printed images.

Reflection
In this assignment, I have really learnt a lot about my hometown. Well, I did face a few issues and from past experience, I know how to overcome these issues. Well I didn't have good drawing skills I have to seek help from my coursemate and he really teaches me a few tips and tricks while drawing. One lesson I learnt is that never to do last-minute work and not procrastinate.
