OUGD403 Design Skills: Alphabet Soup (Task 2)

The Brief



The Questionnaire


Initial Ideas

Research into her artist, Noma Bar (see Design Context page here) and attempt to implement his style into the font, also try to find a fond similar to Noma Bar's style of work. (11.10.12 Update: Bubleboddy chosen) 

The phrase which she over-uses the most is "so", which is an emphasis. So I thought i'd emphasise, and exaggerate the ascenders and descenders from the characters in the font, trying to implement characteristics of her personality into the font.

12/10/12 Update

After experimenting with Bubbleboddy i've decided that it isn't a suitable typeface to base my work from, as it is too thick to work with, and very informal, the stumpy ascenders and descenders are hardly suitable to work with. So instead I've decided, after browsing FontBook, to use Neville Brody's Industria Solid.
