Our HNC graphics class have just finished their first major project of the year, 'Commercial Types'. The brief was to create an identity, promotional material, and exhibit samples for an exhibition aimed at introducing five important typographers - Matthew Carter, Bruno Maag, Tobias Frere-Jones, Carol Twombly and Erik Spiekermann - to a broader, non-design audience. The class were paired in creative teams for this project,a nd had the opportunity to discuss the work with our group of 'Design Buddies' at last week's Mentor Evening in the college.
Here are some samples from two of the final results. You can see samples from all of the projects on our
Pinterest boards.
Renee Simonini and Julia Martins - 'Un-familiar Faces'
Hazel Pike and Lena Sakura - 'Typogravity'
