Elements of Typographic Style

Elements of Typographic Style

OVERVIEW:

The simple and rudimentary nature of Robert Bringhurst's text evoked nostalgia for my childhood. I was inspired to frame the text in such a way that it compares the act of learning about typography to learning how to read or write. I was largely inspired by antique American sampler quilts and workbooks and created 'typographic quilts' using letterforms.

WHAT I DID:

Publication design, illustration

DURATION:

3 weeks

MENTOR:

Mark Addison Smith

INSPIRATION:

  • Writing workbooks

  • John Massey,

  • 1800s antique sampler quilts
