Well i gotta go out, but i've been looking for something to add to the top of this. Spoiler I was thinking something simple like a few cut-out black clouds. Thing is the shapes is going to be very important, because i don't want to create the wrong impression by creating some that are either too cartoon'y or too realistic. Sooo i was wonderinf if anyone would take a few mins to look up any images in the internet that i can use as a source? It would be helpful if they were monocromatic so i could use them as a stencil, becaue i'll be cutting these clouds out on black card. So far the only ones i've found that look okay are;
Why is Paris on there twice and why don't you have any information on it? Is it a poster or just for fun type thing?
It's a research sheet, and the lower image is from a poster. It's useful that i research into different typefaces as well as imagery, so having the same word more than once on a sheet is okay. Just need to fill the gap at the top, however i think any other images may mess up the look of the sheet, so i thought i'd just compliment it with some nice clouds or something of the sort.
I would avoid clouds. Clouds are soft and the design is very strict and straight. Experiment with adding typography to the top. Display 'dummy' information, a quote, etc. The first thing I would do is place a straight, thick band that cuts across the top. It should be the same color as the Eiffel tower and should be covered with some sort of text or, if you can pull it off, no text but a rough, jagged, sandy edge to the band. You might need multiple bands of varying thickness to pull the latter off.
Or maybe an inverted color band across it (where the color going across is one color but when it passes through the eiffel tower it changes color)
