Brief 2
Choose an emotion/ adjective to communicate through your own typeface.
Based on one of these typefaces:
- Garamond
- Caslon
- Times
- Baskerville
- Bodoni
- Helvetica
- Clarendon
- Berthold
- Univers
For this brief we will have to repurpose individual letterforms to work together in endless combinations, we must create a whole uppercase or lowercase alphabet.
Alongside this we need to write a paragraph justifying why you have selected the starting typeface.
