In this workshop, we’ll explore how typefaces can convey distinct personalities, moods, and narratives. Typography isn’t just about choosing letters; it’s about crafting voices and characters through type.
In this session, we’ll start by dissecting the unique “character” of well-known typefaces, examining how subtle details—like curves, angles, and proportions—can communicate different emotions and ideas.
From here, we’ll exchange characterizations and reinterpret someone else’s typographic characters into a new typeface. No prior experience in typography is needed.
