Project Description
Create a poster that will communicate the essential characteristics of letterforms unique to a typeface. You must include the typeface name, the name of the designer, the entire alphabet in upper case and lower case, one set of numbers and the date of issue. You will use only type and color, using type as the only graphic element in the poster, which must convey the most important visual properties of the face. The poster itself should reflect the nature of the typeface as currently used and as intended by the original typeface designer.
Objective
Explore the visual characteristics of the typefaces. To gain an understanding of the history and anatomy of typeface designs. To develop an awareness of the history of type in graphic design and apply that to current usage.
