Blog Entry # 3.3-Design Brief

I am going to design and make a cereal box that would reflect off a person that has honor to world history. Making a cereal box would appear different in a person head about a contributor. It would help a person understand more of a person then just probably looking it up . The cereal box would be flexible . It would move only if you pick it up ,rotate, & move it around . It isn't made out of heavy material , well it is but you have to be careful so you don't ruin your information . Meaning you should keep it out of a harmless place . This cereal box can be very useful to just not only you but others that's looking for a honor person that has a contribute to the world.

Symbol that Represents Him

Gold symbolizes my person because Musa was kind with his gold and distribute to the poor . However it drew attention to the great wealth of the Mali Empire and also cemented his respect among the Arab world . But without looking at a little of the bad side this gold help Mali get stronger in their way with the trades of products that help them on a daily basic.
