Fonts in Design
Describe what it is: This is an image of a few different fonts being used in an art form. With the use of color and the overlapping you can barely tell that it is fonts, but if you look at it long enough you notice the different styles and designs within the image.
Describe its function: This image shows the changing variety of fonts and is most likely used as modern art, well that's what I'd use it for.
Describe where you saw it: I found this image at google, when I was searching under fonts. This image might not be the best representation of fonts but it is definitely very creative.
Discuss the style of the design & typography: The design of most of the typography is very loopy, fancy, and intricate... but a few of the fonts are more straight forward, average looking, nothing special about them.
Discuss the quality of the artwork: The image quality is very interesting to say the least. It is not meant to be seen very clearly, because it's more artwork then demonstrating typography. The colors of the image make it extremely interesting. The whole piece makes you want to look at it more.
Discuss what attracted you to the piece (use adjectives). Describe how it relates to what we have discussed or read: This image shows the use and progression of typefaces. It shows that older typefaces and modern typefaces can work together to create works of art. This also kind of reminded me of type families, even though I don't think these are actually a type family, it shows how one could work together.
The design is intricate and interesting. It almost looks as though it is an entire floral design. I like how the composition consists of different overlapping texts.
ReplyDeleteI like how this image shows many different font styles cooperating together. Especially the contrast between old and modern type.
ReplyDeleteI like all the colors and designs incorporated in this image just with fonts. There are more intricate details with the fancier fonts, but you can also see the more simplistic and clean fonts. I really like that contrast and it definately adds interest.
ReplyDeleteThere is a crap load of stuff going on in this image, but I find it interesting that my eyes continuously focus on the simple linear text in the center,.. even though it's the one with the least amount of stuff screaming at you. I suppose it has a lot to deal with the placement- horizontally in the middle of the composition. However, it shows that sometimes the simplest stuff is often the most eye catching.
