Typography Today
Author: Vivian Lei
Publisher: Azur Corporation
ISBN: 9789881768414
Category : Graphic arts
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Over recent decades, type has been contextualized. It is no longer at home in static, monotone print. It is now belongs in the domain of the image. Type is integrated into image as if it is a 'real' and tangible as any other subject or objects. It is treated as having physical presence with weight and depth. Among these pages we will see a return to the handmade. Hand-drawn scrawl has become increasingly popular over the past few years. We are currently entering a new typographic era, in which designers choose to focus on the form and substance of the individual letter more than on overall composition. Colour throughout
