TYPESCAPES-GRAPHIC DESIGN THEORY

I have spent some more time this week reading Graphic Design Theory - Readings from the field. After reading the eassy of Herbert Bayer and Josef Muller-Brockman. I have tried the Typescapes poster based on samples in the the book along with one or two quotes.


"TYPOGRAPHY IS A SERVICE ART, NOT A FINE ART"
Herbert Bayer 1967





"WORKING WITH THE GRID SYSTEM MEANS SUBMITTING TO LAWS OF UNIVERSAL VALIDITY"
Josef Muller-Brockmann 1981

  1. I find the use of caps and the way they are spaced not that great, prefer the second Muller-Brockmann version. Try now to apply this from your own perspective.

    Its been a while since i have jumped into the field of Graphics Designing. I would say i was right to make this

    decision. I keep browsing through new Graphics Resources online. This is a nice master piece you have got

    about Graphics Designing. Actually i collect graphics resources and share other people's useful resources too

    on my blog which you can read here.
