HOTEL  is an establishment that provides paid lodging on a short-term basis.

The provision of basicaccommodation, in times past, consisting only of a room with a bed, a cupboard, a small table and a washstand has largely been replaced by rooms with modern facilities, including en-suite bathrooms and air conditioning or climate control. Additional common features found in hotel rooms are a telephone, an alarm clock, a television, a safe, a minibar with snack foods and drinks, and facilities for making tea and coffee. Luxury features include bathrobes and slippers, a pillow menu, twin-sink vanities, and jacuzzi bathtubs. Larger hotels may provide additional guest facilities such as a restaurant, swimming pool, fitness center, business center, childcare, conference facilities and social function services. Hotel rooms are usually numbered (or named in some smaller hotels and B&Bs) to allow guests to identify their room. Some hotels offer meals as part of a room and board arrangement. In the United Kingdom, a hotel is required by law to serve food and drinks to all guests within certain stated hours. In Japan,capsule hotels provide a minimized amount of room space and shared facilities. RESTAURANT  A commercial establishment providing lodging, meals, and other guest services. In general, to be called a hotel, an establishment must have a minimum of six letting bedrooms, at least three of which must have attached(ensuite) private bathroom facilities. A restaurant ( / r st r nt/ or / r st r nt/; French: [ s.to. ]) prepares and serves food, drink and dessert to customers in return for money. Meals are generally served and eaten on premises, but many restaurants also offer take-outand food delivery services. Restaurants vary greatly in appearance and offerings, including a wide variety of the main chef's cuisines and service models. While inns and taverns were known from antiquity, these were establishments aimed at travelers, and in general locals would rarely eat there. Modern restaurants are dedicated to the serving of food, where specific dishes are ordered by guests and are prepared to their request. The modern restaurant originated in 18th century France, although precursors can be traced back toRoman times.[1] A restaurant owner is called a restaurateur ( / r st r t r/); both words derive from the French verb restaurer, meaning "to restore". Professional artisans of cooking are called chefs, while preparation staff and line cooks prepare food items in a more systematic and less artistic fashion.

SERVICE  Service is a word used constantly. The word service has an impression on many people. For example; people who work as lifeguards view their work as a service to the community. Naturally, based on working as a lifeguard their definition of service would be an action beneficial to the well-being of others. Not surprisingly, a similar definition was found in the Oxford English Dictionary (OED). Service is described in the Oxford English Dictionary as "the action of serving, helping, or benefiting; conduct tending to the welfare or advantage of another; condition or employment of a public servant; friendly or professional assistance." Furthermore, in Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary, service is described as "the occupation or function of serving others; employment as a servant; contribution to the welfare of others.

ENTREPRENEUR  is a person who has possession of a new enterprise, venture or idea and is accountable for the inherent risks and the outcome. The term was originally a loanword from French and was first defined by the IrishFrench economist Richard Cantillon. Entrepreneur in English is a term applied to a person who is willing to help launch a new venture or enterprise and accept full responsibility for the outcome. Jean-Baptiste Say, a French economist, is believed to have coined the word "entrepreneur" in the 19th century - he defined an entrepreneur as "one who undertakes an enterprise, especially a contractor, acting as intermediatory between capital and labour". A broader definition by Say: "The entrepreneur shifts economic resources out of lower and into higher productivity and greater yield." ENTREPRENEURSHIP


is the act of being an entrepreneur, which can be defined as "one who undertakes innovations, finance and business acumen in an effort to transform innovations into economic goods". This may result in new organizations or may be part of revitalizing mature organizations in response to a perceived opportunity. The most obvious form of entrepreneurship is that of starting new businesses(referred as Startup Company); however, in recent years, the term

has been extended to include social and political forms of entrepreneurial activity. When entrepreneurship is describing activities within a firm or large organization it is referred to as intra-preneurship and may include corporate venturing, when large entities spin-off organizations.

Image File Formats - TIF, JPG, PNG, GIF Which to use?


The three most common image file formats, the most important for printing, scanning and internet use, are TIF, JPG and GIF. However, TIF cannot be used in internet browsers. All editor programs like Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Elements support these file formats, which will generally support and store images in the following color modes:

Color data mode Bits per pixel TIF RGB - 24 or 48 bits, Grayscale - 8 or 16 bits, Indexed color - 1 to 8 bits, Line Art (bilevel)- 1 bit For TIF files, most programs allow either no compression or LZW compression (lossless, but is less effective for 24 bit color images). Adobe Photoshop also provides JPG or ZIP compression too (but which greatly reduces third party compatibility of TIF files). "Document programs" allow ITCC G3 or G4 compression for 1 bit text (Fax is G3 or G4 TIF files), which is lossless and tremendously effective (small). PNG RGB - 24 or 48 bits, Grayscale - 8 or 16 bits, Indexed color - 1 to 8 bits, Line Art (bilevel) - 1 bit PNG uses ZIP compression which is lossless, and slightly more effective than LZW (slightly smaller files). PNG is a newer format, designed to be both verstile and royalty free, back when the LZW patent was disputed. JPG RGB - 24 bits, Grayscale - 8 bits JPEG always uses lossy JPG compression, but its degree is selectable, for higher quality and larger files, or lower quality and smaller files.

GIF

Indexed color - 1 to 8 bits GIF uses lossless LZW compression, effective on indexed color. GIF files contain no dpi information for printing purposes.

The elements of graphic design are used, and often combined, to create graphic works. They should not be confused with principles of design, such as balance and white space, but rather components such as color, type and images. Presented here is a list of the most commonly used elements in graphic design.

Element of Color

Color is used in graphic design to captivate the eye and bring attention to certain areas of a design. Using color can change the impact of every other graphic design element that is formed. Colors can support an idea, evoke an emotion and give an overall design a sense of completion. Each color has a value when used in design. A value is the overall darkness or lightness of an object. Color can shift the value of a design object by being used in shades or by being combined to create shadow like features around an object. Color can also create contrast within a design and allow for the illusion of movement when looking at a finished project.

Element of Shape

The shape element is made up of all types of shapes that are used to focus and give meaning to the creation itself. Shapes are broken down into three main categories: basic, natural and abstract. Basic shapes include triangles, squares, circles, cones, octagons and hexagons. Natural shapes are forms naturally occurring in nature, for example something like the shape a butter splat makes on the kitchen floor is as naturally occurring as the shape of a leaf or snowflake. Abstract shapes can be either a stylized or a simplified version of basic and natural shapes. Shapes can be used in design to create patterns, be the focal point of a piece or can frame the layout of a design by the way shapes are aligned.

Element of Line

The use of lines is what can give a design project structure. Lines are used to create forms and divide space within a graphic layout. They are a reliable graphic design tool becasue they can be manipulated in any manner of form, shape or pattern. Lines can be dotted, curved, straight, swirled, narrowed and more. One of the best benefits of using lines is in the grid system that is used to give a design layout form before all elements and principles are utilized. The grid system is a set of lines in various widths and lengths that form a square-to-square pattern to set the design scope.

Element of Type

Using the element of type within graphic design can enhance the overall look by conveying a specific message that the other elements alone would not be able convey. Options for type are based on font choice, placement, size, alignment and color. Type can even be used in place of certain elements because it can be used to form shapes and images to complement a design without having to use separate shapes or images. There are millions of typefaces that are available, with typography designers creating more every day. This gives the type element an added benefit when used in graphic design.
