Type Lab 2

Today in class, we are:

Looking at your traced type

Choosing type for your first parent (from your traced options)

Starting our initial combinations

For next time:

Explore at least 6 ways of combining your typefaces. 

• At least 3 of these need to be cutting and pasting by hand.
• Each combination should consist of 5 or more letters. 
• (these don’t all need to be the same two typefaces, but limit it to 3 different pairs)

Looking at your work from the workshop!
