Final Development


Colour Experiment
Dots used

After experimentation with both opacity and colour, I chose a technique which allows me to show both the front and top of each other. Use of colour was interesting and incorporated use of modern graphic design trends, this will make a successful typeface to be used and display print. Although the brief was to create outfits which can be used in any order, I would be unable to do this if using colour are some of the colours will clash. Yet you using opacity alone typeface too dull, therefore it would not be a successful display type. Therefore, I considered using the use of stippling, this is the technique that was used in my original sketches; I noticed how there was blank space behind the dots therefore another letterform would be visible through it. To be able to create a typeface which used this technique, I had to first create a base for the stippling; to do this I created a large file photo shop this would ensure when clipping the letterforms, they would all have they even consistency of dots. In order to make the typeface interesting I kept the dots tight, this also means the top letterforms as visible as possible without blocking the one beneath it.
