J187 Designing with Type
This document discusses type and readability. It covers key topics such as:
1) Readability is the most important purpose of type, allowing readers to easily understand text. Factors like size, color, and font can contribute or distract from readability.
2) Relationships between type include concordant (one consistent typeface), conflicting (similar but not identical typefaces), and contrasting (distinctly different typefaces).
3) There are categories of type including oldstyle, modern, slab serif, sans serif, script, and decorative. Combining types of contrasting categories creates the best designs.
Basics of typography hierarchy
The document discusses typographic hierarchy, which is a system for organizing type that establishes importance and allows readers to easily find information. It does this by guiding the reader's eye to where sections begin and end through consistent use of style. Common methods for establishing hierarchy include using size, weight, color, position, type contrast, and spacing between elements. Combining these techniques is most effective for creating clear distinction between different types of content.

Typography is the study of type including letter shape, size, and spacing. It plays an important role in how an audience perceives information. Typography helps create relationships between information through organization and use of fonts. Key principles of typographic design include legibility, contrast, hierarchy, and consistency to focus audience attention and distinguish different information levels. Fonts refer to specific typeface designs that come in families with variants like bold or italic. Common typefaces include serif, sans serif, slab serif, and decorative or script fonts. Spacing choices involve proportional or monospace fonts as well as tracking, kerning, leading, and indentation conventions.
A crash course in typography
This document provides an overview of typography concepts including:
1. The importance of typography and how typefaces can affect readability and aesthetics.
2. Common type classifications like serif, sans-serif, display, and script and examples of popular typefaces within each classification.
3. Guidelines for combining typefaces effectively including considering factors like contrast, weight, structure, style, hierarchy, classification, color, texture, and mood.
Topography
The document discusses the fundamentals of typography including:
- Typeface refers to a set of characters within a font family, while font refers to a specific style within a typeface like bold or italic.
- Serif fonts have small lines at the end of strokes that make letters more distinctive for print, while sans serif fonts are better for online reading with lower resolution.
- Common type classifications include old style, transitional, modern, slab serif, grotesque, neo-grotesque, humanist, and geometric.
- Proper spacing includes kerning between letters, tracking between words, and leading between lines of text.

Documenting home
This document lists the names of various photographers and some details about their work. It includes Josef Sudek listed twice along with his nationality and years of birth and death. It also lists Roman Vishniac with his nationality and years of birth and death. Additional names mentioned include Larry Sultan with the title of one of his works, Paul Strand with his nationality and years of birth and death and details of one of his works, Robert Van Der Heist and his subject matter, and the names Sophie Calle, Jill DeVries, John Johnson, and Jan Prewett.
Type combining
When combining fonts, choose fonts that contrast each other or come from the same historic period. When mixing fonts in the same paragraph, select fonts with similar characteristics like x-height and cap height. If mixing two fonts in the same paragraph, make sure they have the same x-height so it does not appear jarring to readers. Bodoni and Futura seem like unlikely pairings but can work together due to their vertical strokes. Lucida Sans, Lucida Bright, and fonts designed to go together are good pairing options.
Graphic design examples2018
This document provides examples of graphic design work including logo design, poster design, flyer design, book design, editorial design, web design, print and digital advertising design, catalog design, brochure design, form design, information design, letterhead and card design, resume design, menu design, display graphics and signage, annual report design, label design, film titles, ticket design, tag design, truck signage design, invitation design, calendar design, user interface design, and map design.
Principles of graphic design s18
The document outlines the principles and elements of visual design, including contrast, repetition, alignment, proximity, line, shape, texture, space, size, value, and color. It defines each element, such as line as a mark connecting two points, shape as anything with height and width, and texture as the look or feel of a surface. The principles create techniques like balance, rhythm, emphasis, and unity within a design.
Infographic types
Infographics are visual representations of information, data, or knowledge intended to present complex information quickly and clearly. They can help simplify large amounts of data and relationships. Effective infographics tell a story or make a point using graphics, images, and minimal text.
Travel brochure
Travel brochures are designed to attract potential visitors to destinations. They use folds to organize information on destinations, attractions, activities, accommodations and other details into panels that can be easily viewed and referenced. Effective brochure design balances visual appeal with concise summaries to inform readers while enticing them to learn more.
Icons symbols signs
This document discusses symbols, icons, and signs. It provides examples of how symbols can represent objects or concepts through simplified graphical representations. Symbols are meant to convey meaning even when the details are reduced. The choice of symbol depends on factors like the product or service, intended audience, and how the symbol will be used or reproduced. Well-designed symbols highlight important attributes to help with visual recognition.
Personal logos
This document lists the names and occupations of four individuals: John Moore and David Pache are listed as graphic designers, Mike Erickson as a graphic designer and photographer, and Natasha Balabanova as a designer.
Books and book cover2
The document discusses various techniques for overlaying text over images in book covers and design. It provides examples of overlaying text in different colors, opacities, and placements to ensure readability over images with varying tones. Methods mentioned include using color overlays, adjusting image brightness, adding gradients or selective overlays, and manipulating images to focus on text. Proper text treatment and placement is also discussed to highlight key information while retaining image impact.
Political posters
Political posters are a form of graphic design used to influence viewers. They are often used during election campaigns to promote candidates or issues. Effective political posters use simple messages, striking visuals, and emotional appeals to grab attention and convey their intended message in a brief format.
Unity rep
This document discusses different types of symmetry and asymmetry that can be used in web site and brochure designs including rotational symmetry, reflective symmetry, translational symmetry, as well as asymmetric and centered designs with asymmetrical elements. It also mentions using grids and contrasts in designs.
Travel brochure
Travel brochures are an important marketing tool for destinations and require an eye-catching yet informative design. The front cover needs to showcase appealing imagery that draws readers in while inside pages should feature photos that represent the destination's attractions and activities. Descriptions of places to visit, things to do, and accommodations help potential visitors envision themselves at the destination and inspire travel.
Label design
Labels should have variations within a group to help distinguish between similar items at a glance. Using different colors, shapes, icons or text styles allows related labels to be easily identified as part of a set while maintaining visual differences between each item. Proper label design helps users quickly recognize individual labels and understand how they relate to one another.
Book covers
The document discusses key principles of effective book cover design, including announcing the genre to help readers find the book, implying the tone (e.g. dramatic page-turner vs. subtle character study), generating excitement with an intriguing hook, using contrasting colors/fonts/elements, focusing the cover on a clear message, and positioning the book within its context. It emphasizes announcing the genre, implying the tone, and generating excitement while focusing on a clear message.
Color online
This document discusses three different color wheels: Sir Isaac Newton's color wheel which showed that white light could be broken up into the visible light spectrum through a prism; Johann Wolfgang Goethe's color wheel which argued that color perception is influenced by both physiological and psychological factors; Johannes Itten's color wheel which arranged colors by their hue and was influential in basic design education.
Line shape
The document consists of the repeated phrase "L I N E & S H A P E" with no other text, images or context provided. It appears to be discussing or emphasizing the concepts of line and shape through repetition without further elaboration.
Color samples for review
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for both physical and mental health. Regular exercise can improve cardiovascular health, reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety, enhance mood, and reduce stress levels. Staying physically active for at least 30 minutes per day can provide significant health benefits.

Typography
- 10. All letterforms are constructed of lines and shapes. Sometimes the lines describe shapes, and sometimes they are strokes of varying widths. The overall appearance of a font can vary widely, from ‘calligraphic’ forms (that appear made with a pen or brush) to ‘hand- written’ (free-form letters like those drawn with a pencil or marker) to uniform letters that are based on the same repeating elements.
- 16. Justified text will add space between words to fill column width, leaving undesirable large gaps.
- 17. Adjustments can be made with letter spacing, hyphenation and character width adjustments.
- 18. Text Rag
- 21. Line spacing or leading
- 23. Line length
