Here are the updated two-color studies. I have quite the selection of puddle icons just to try out different color combinations. I hadn't reached a nice combination in the first round so I tried even more this round. I still don't know if I have it yet, they're still a little iffy.
I'm not feeling the fill icons anymore once I applied it to the rest of the icons. However, I still quite enjoy the split, but they still need a bit of finessing and I'm not totally sold on the colors just yet.

So, Jamie, you said to "use scale, space, and contrast to emphasize those lovely grids". Well I did just that. Did I take it too far? Possibly. But it never hurts to try totally redesigning something if the first round just wasn't working. I set these pages on 11x17 instead of 8.5x11. I put them into three columns, each area getting four sections. The bottom text was broken up into two sections of three. With the text I used a 14, 21, 48, 60, 72 scale to create hierarchy.
Things to think about from here out;
Things to think about from here out;
- Should there be text on top of the top images
- Are the images and text fighting for dominance
- Is there too much space given to the top section and not enough to the bottom section
