In this course, you will learn the art of designing with type. I hope you develop an appreciation for typography and that you learn how to use it to strengthen your designs. Typography is an integral part of Graphic Design, and masterful use of type separates the really good designers from those who are just so-so...it does make a difference!
For class, you will need the book Designing With Type 5 by James Craig and Irene Korol Scala. Copies can be found in the school bookstore. Another great book that is not required, but is recommended, is Thinking With Type by Ellen Lupton Exercises and assignments will also be posted in this blog. You will have numerous exercises over the course of this semester in addition to your major projects. Please check this blog weekly.
For now, that's it! Looking forward to a great semester! See you Wednesday!
