Nieczytelność — dychotomia funkcji i formy w projektowaniu graficznym w oparciu o działania typograficzne i liternicze
Illegibility — the Dichotomy of Function and Form in Graphic Design on the Basis of Typography and Lettering Design
This work examines the issue of text legibility in the domain of graphic design – a field of art that has had a significant influence on the development of contemporary social communication. Due to the functional character of the letter, the aspect of legibility is a basic requirement for the realisation of the superior function of text, which is to convey content. For centuries, however, the letter has been entangled in a relationship between the message it carries and its visual representation, which when read, also satisfies the aesthetic needs of the recipient. Hence, the dichotomy of form and function.
