REFLECTIONS
Experience
Experience
I discovered there is more to typography than merely choosing a font during my
14-week course. It's about using typography to make a statement. As designers
of typefaces, we are continuously balancing aesthetics and readability.
Typography design is all about using typefaces to express emotion, which is
just as crucial as using color or imagery to give life to your brand or
design. My experience with class typography has been fun.
Observations
While working on my tasks it has come to my realization that typeface design accomplishes a variety of tasks, including making text comprehensible, generating feelings, and developing a recognizable corporate identity. Good typographic design in a brand logo can influence how I feel about it, and dynamic font combinations can add visual interest to presentations. My attention has always been held without becoming distracted by effective typography. Similar to overdone flashy typography, which draws attention away from the brand. During task 1, I felt more creative and fascinated, Kerning gave me a whole new experience with learning spacing and understanding.
Findings
I have come to learn that typography has numerous facets as you go more into
depth about the basics of typography. Undoubtedly, there are a number of
important choices to be made, such as the font's style and the rest of the
character sets. These choices included how wide should a lowercase letter's
curve be in proportion to another letter's lowercase that has a comparable
curve. In this way, studying typography is research since it helps us gain a
piece of better knowledge. It enabled me to understand what choices led to
something being the manner it is and why in a typeface. I believe if I was to
work in the field of typography, learning about type development will help me
both choose and use type through further research of each component of the
font. This made me intrigued to discover the unknown points of typography from
the beginning of my coursework.
