Typography


This is a typography project I did fall '09 for publication and design class. I pulled complementary colors from the text that also went well for the background image.

The background image is from the inside of a windshield. I knew I wanted the bug guts to be the only thing with red.

This project was the first for my class and it really made me tone it down when it came to fonts. One typeface can be manipulated to look different, as in italics or bold for example. I tried to make the word "windshield" appear elongated. I also lowered the kerning between the letters in bug to give the impression of a squished bug, as the photo suggests.
