After choosing labyrinth as my selected word for the task, the start of the brief stated that the story started with a family entering a house. This encouraged me to use a scalpel to cut out the shape of windows, a door and a roof to connotate this. As the book progresses the pages start to slowly change and include different textures to link with how each room within the brief all look different, adding to the illusion that the characters are completely lost within the labyrinth.
Textures of Lettering Presentation
After wandering around the campus and taking photographs of typography within the department building as well as outside; I found that all of the examples I had taken had a very similar pattern. All of my photos displayed different styles of typography using different textures and techniques, for example the many carvings/engravings on stone and metal grates. Looking at the various font styles and techniques of how information had been conveyed, gave me a further understanding of how information that is conveyed for a purpose has to suit a particular style for what is being displayed.
The Ideal Gift for someone who:
I designed a proposal for an ideal gift associated with a few of Zack’s interests/passions. I incorporated his love of rap and EMINEM with the Pop Vinyl figures to create a Vinyl figure of EMINEM that has a Bluetooth speaker that connects to Zack’s Spotify playlist.
