Title: Type Design Competition

Assignment

The assignment was to design a poster for Type Design Competition by Type Director's Club.

Approach

The main purpose of the poster was to suggest that this competition is a good opportunity for entries to show their various designs of the typography.

Results

I chose to use two different typefaces (serif and san-serif) with two different colors to emphasize how typefaces can look different from one another. Also, by aligning the letters like accordion, I tried to create a three dimensional perspective in the poster.
