Details- Typography II
John DuFresne
Fall 2021

Overview- For this project, the objective was to design a 5.5”x8.5” type-dominant chapbook which needed to be bound in our choice. The overall book needed to contain between 12 to 20 pages. The typography needed to have a mixture of traditional typography while still being relevant in typography as of when it was being designed.

Design Thinking- I created a chapbook called Your Power with included daily positive affirmations inside. I created a gooey shape and used them as a design element throughout the chap book. 

Challenges- One of the challenges was to keep in mind the gutter when folding the pages together in the end. I had to print early to make sure that my margins were far enough away from the gutter.

New Lessons- I learned how to create a beautiful color palette. I learned how to find fonts on Adobe Fonts that matched the feeling of my chapbook.
