Modified Letters vs COVID-19

type lab 2 | modified letters vs coronavirus Basics It’s often useful to modify or customize a typeface to make it suit a particular purpose more. Modifying an existing typeface can be a quick way to get custom type, to change the tone of type to fit a purpose, to fit type into a space (without squashing it, of course), and more. In this project, we’re going to modify type to make work to contribute to the WHO/UN’s response to COVID-19.

Broadsides Intro + Crime!

For these broadsides, we’re establishing almost severe restrictions on the number of typefaces we can use. We’re doing this as a way to create new opportunities and look for ways to communicate meaning, show hierarchy, and use our good design sense when we have a limited typographic palette. 

Create 4 different broadsides.
