Inspiration： Today, when I view articles online, I find a function in pdf viewer that is really interesting. That is, this app has a part of stickers. Although it is a modern vision in this app, I still think that the function of putting stickers together and creating one`s visual stuff gives me the feeling of making a poem.

This function could be included in my app design.

I thought I could add some stickers to this app to allow users to create their own collages of poems. Each person might have their own idea of a poem, so they could create different visual poems, which would be very interesting.

These stickers will be placed in a toolbar in the Make a Poem function. The elements in them I think could look like those in the picture, with some watercolour elements, and some custom images.

When we had the class, I came up with the idea that this app I would design is a tool that could help people focus on the poems and easily choose poems they prefer.

It is a little bit like thumbnails, but not totally.

Note：Thumbnails, which represent small compressed images on a web page or on a computer, often contain hyperlinks to full-sized images. Thumbnails are used to load graphics or image-heavy web pages more quickly in a web browser. They are used for fast browsing because they are small and load very quickly. The equivalent of an image file preview and a table of contents.

But there is one thing that I am considering, how could my audiences know what is the meaning or essential pieces of information through my visualisation?

If it is abstract artwork by watercolour, it perhaps can only represent the feeling or the understanding of my own view and opinions.

So it seems more possible for me to generate or create a new way to transform text or poems into visual things.

Just like the second and third version of the visualisatipn.

But here comes another problem. I still think this visual is good suitable graphic design work but perhaps not attractive enough for other audiences.
