My idea for the good brief is to create a book of quotes, that represent the word simplicity by using photography. There will be a quote for everyday for a whole month, then the materials for the book and the printing process will be very important in the design decisions as this will also need to represent simplicity. Following are some of my favourite quotes i am thinking about using in my book 'simplicity'
"Simplicity in character, in manners, in style; in all things the supreme excellence is simplicity."
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth
"Manifest plainness, embrace simplicity, reduce selfishness, have few desires."
Lao-Tzu
"Simplicity of all things is the hardest to be copy."
Steele, Sir Richard
"Simplicity is natures first step, and the last of art."
Bailey, Philip James
"Out of intense complexities intense simplicities emerge."
Churchill, Winston
"The art of simplicity is a puzzle of complexity."
Horton, Doug
"Simplicity is the seal of truth."
Proverb
"There is no greatness where there is not simplicity, goodness and truth."
Tolstoy, Count Leo
"Beauty of style and harmony and grace and good rhythm depends on simplicity."
Plato
"By two wings a man is lifted up from things earthly: by simplicity and purity."
Kempis, Thomas
