REFLECTION:
Experience:
Designing a new typeface from
existing letterforms proved to be a
particularly engaging task, allowing
me to transform designs into unique
fonts. As I developed a full
typeface using Illustrator and
Fontlab, the importance of
consistency across all characters
became evident. This journey in
typography started with grasping
fundamental concepts like
typographic hierarchy, spacing, and
alignment, which built a solid
foundation for my skills.
Additionally, creating mockups to
see how the typeface looked in
various practical scenarios provided
valuable insights, enhancing my
ability to present my design
effectively. Overall, the process
has been both a challenging and
gratifying experience.
Observations:
Through my work, I found that
t
he design
process in
typography
blends
creativity with
technical
skills.
Understanding
typography
basics is
crucial, along
with using tools
like Illustrator
and Fontlab
effectively.
Small
adjustments in
spacing, weight,
and alignment
can greatly
impact a
typeface’s
appearance and
readability.
Ensuring
consistency
across
characters is
essential for
harmony, and
creating mockups
helps evaluate
how the typeface
performs in
various
contexts.
Findings:
Through these activities, I
improved both my creative and
technical skills. I developed a
clearer grasp of how type interacts
with images, which enabled me to
craft more unified and effective
designs. This semester marked a
notable progress in my typographic
abilities and overall design
awareness.
