Project 1: Phase 2
Phase 1 introduced us to the grid. The assignment was to cut out various samples of "Jan Tschichold / A Life in Typography / 1902-1974 / Ruari McLean" in Univers of different weights, sizes, and variations of all caps. The guiding rule was to only align text to the upper left corner of boxes.
I felt like the manual method was a good way to understand the principles of the grid but it also felt limiting and cumbersome.
Here are some examples of my first phase.
