Typography, Lettering and Text as Image
The aim of the Message Journal is to explore and expand the boundaries of visual communication within art and design through an experimental and developmental ethos, challenging the practitioner, the development and the use of technology, as well as questioning visual communication values and social, ethical and sustainable practices.
Working as part of a team of two designers as well as all the contributors to the Message Journal, my design partner and I created a 74 page peer reviewed journal. Whilst working within strict guidelines for time and print we designed a layout that would effectively use white space to give the journal a high end look and feel, whilst also making it as legible as possible. The design of the fromt cover features a letter pressed letter A which wraps from the front to the back. When viewed from one side the A is not visible playing on the idea of text as image.
Thanks For Looking
