Votes (Money)



Ive started to design the votes that will be used instead of currency. I used influence from the original money in monopoly, changing elements like the train and house that are normally in adjacent squares. I was going to change the house into an R, which represents the rights you can buy on each square, like the houses, but i wanted the V to represent Votes, instead of money. I dont know whether i should put 'Vote', under the 1 to make this clear to the children playing, as they will be used to the normal game.

I am also going to print each value on different coloured copier paper to distinguish between the different amounts of votes that each amount represents, like the original. I am using copier paper to give it the same aesthetic as the original game as it is only printed one-sided and on thin paper.

I have to source this paper as it normally comes in big amounts which is not needed for this project.

I decided not to make a detailed pattern on the background of the Vote, as i feel like the original design represents the pattern on actual money, and i dont want mine to resemble currency at all.

I think the design is simplistic, recognisable and will look even better when printed on different stock.
