A series of 4 posters: 2 sans-serif and 2 serif. Shown in reverse order of completion.







For this project, I designed 4 informational posters to showcase 4 typefaces I found interesting. I always start by picturing the general theme and how I want the poster to feel. For example, I went with a Tiffany blue background for Bodoni to imply that it's a typeface used for elegance, like fashion and jewelry. In contrast, I gave the Rockwell poster a backdrop reminiscent of a blueprint because of its geometric serifs. In all the examples, I worked heavily with horizontal and vertical grids in InDesign.
