Typographic Poster: Type As Layout
categories: Typography I
Type As Layout explored the ways in which a large amount of text and information can be arranged in an organized yet visually interesting layout. For this assignment we were given the raw text for an AIGIA event The Studio & Consultancy presented by Things & Contexts, and then asked to design a typographic poster from it. I created several layout variations before deciding on the final one which incorporated triangular shapes as the basis. This experimentation with typographic layout got me really interested in typography and taught me the importance of deciding on the right typefaces to use and figuring out which types of fonts interact best with each other.
