Learning to love type.


the project we are working on in our two d-design class has us working with typography. i never think of typography as such an art, but it really is. i am using the letter W and i am using a typeface called palatino. because if this class i am starting to realize how little things are so complex. well that and an amazing family member that i have who is going to do things that will change the world. these two things are making me realize decisions we make that seem so simple still convey to people what we feel and think. something about the fact that everything i do means something... might cause me to make decisions based off of what it can convey to other people.

the picture above is from the apartheid museum... this is all different fliers from when the people were actively working against the government to gain equality. each flier says something different. not just by its wording but by the colors, the pictures, and the typeface that they use.


Enjoy.
