LECTURES
AdTypo_1_Typographic Systems
- Complex Function: Typography is intricate due to its communicative purpose.
- Critical Factors: Hierarchy, legibility, order, and contrast matter.
- Like Architectural Rules: Typographic systems are similar to architectural guidelines.
-
Balancing Guidance: Rules provide structure for growing
intuition.
Eight Major Variations:
- Axial System: Elements align left/right along one axis.
- Radial System: Elements extend from a focus point.
- Dilatational System: Elements expand from center in a circle.
- Random System: Elements lack specific pattern.
- Grid System: Vertical/horizontal divisions.
- Transitional System: Informal layered bands.
- Modular System: Standardized non-objective units.
-
Bilateral System: Symmetrical text on one axis.
AdTypo_2_Typographic Composition
The Rule of Thirds:
- A composition guide in photography.
- Intersecting lines guide the placement of points of interest.
- People often prefer other composition techniques over the rule of thirds
Typographic Systems:
The Grid System, also known as the Raster System, is the most widely used
typographic system. It has its origins in Letter Press printing and was
further developed and refined by the Swiss (Modernist) style of
Typography.
During the modernist era, typography emphasized order and rules, while the
post-modernist typographic systems explored chaos, randomness, and
asymmetry. This led to the emergence of asymmetrical, random, repetitive,
dilatational, and radial systems.
Other models / Systems:
Environmental Grid
- This system explores existing or combined structures
- Crucial curved and straight lines are extracted.
- Designers use these lines as a super-structure to organize information, creating a unique texture.
- It provides context for the forms used in designs.
Form & Movement
- This system is based on the exploration of an existing Grid Systems.
- Encourage exploration of grid system possibilities.
- Remove the seriousness often associated with using grids.
- Consider page-turning as a slow-motion animation involving elements like images, text, and color.
- Emphasize the placement of elements in this animation.
Form & Movement
AdTypo_3_Context&Creativity
Handwriting is significant because the earliest mechanically produced
letterforms were designed to closely resemble handwriting. Handwriting
served as the foundational standard for form, spacing, and conventions
that mechanical type sought to replicate.
English Uncial script (8th century) became slanted and
condensed. Meanwhile, European writing needed reform, which came with
the Carolingian Handwriting Reform.
Carolingian Minuscule
- Charlemagne's court Cuneiform (c. 3000 B.C.E.)
- Earliest writing system.
- Wedge-shaped characters made in wet clay with a reed stylus.
- Evolved from pictograms.
- Written left to right.
Hieroglyphics (2613 – 2160 B.C.E.)
- Egyptian writing fused with relief carving.
- A mix of rebus and phonetic characters.
- Hieroglyphic images serve three purposes:
- As ideograms, depicting actual objects.
- As determinatives, indicating the word's general idea and that preceding signs are phonograms.
- As phonograms, representing sounds to spell out words.
Early Greek (5th C. B.C.E.)
- Adapted from the Egyptian logo-consonantal system.
- Phoenicians developed a 22-letter phonetic alphabet.
- Greeks introduced vowels.
- Early Greek used capital letters, organized horizontally between guidelines.
- Reading direction varied from left-to-right to right-to-left.
- Greek letters were hand-drawn, lacked serifs, and were freehand.
- Over time, Greek letters gained serifs and thicker strokes.
- These letterforms influenced inscriptions in Greece and Roman formal writing.
Roman letters (4th century) became rounder, enabling faster
writing with fewer strokes.
Black Letter (12 – 15 C. CE)
- Gothic style from 1200 to 1500.
- Term "Gothic" from Italians, denoting northern cultures.
- Emphasized vertical lines in architecture and Blackletter writing.
- Blackletter had tight spacing, saving materials in book production.
The Italian Renaissance
- Gothic thrived, while Italian Humanists revived ancient Greek and Roman culture.
- They admired Carolingian script for its clear handwriting.
- Named rediscovered letterforms "Antica."
- Improved letterforms for a more perfect look during the Renaissance.
Movable Type (11 C. – 14 C.)
- Before 11th century: Woodblock printing in China, Korea, Japan; earliest book, Diamond Sutra (AD 868).
- China's failed movable type attempts due to character volume and clay.
- Late 14th century: Koreans pioneered bronze movable type for text reassembly.
- Movable type introduced around 1000-1100 CE, starting in China and succeeding in Korea.
Eastern developments in handwriting
Indus Valley Civilization (IVC) Script (3500 – 2000 B.C.E.)
- The oldest writing in the Indian subcontinent
- Undeciphered
- Logo-syllabic nature
Brahmi Script (450–350 BCE)
- Developed in India
- Highly influential; basis for modern Indian and many Southeast/East Asian scripts
- Origin debated: Some suggest Semitic influence, others propose indigenous or Indus script connection
- Oldest scripts in Southeast Asia: Indian scripts, notably Pallava (or Pallawa in Malay) from South India.
- Not all borrowed from India: Kawi, based on Nagari but native to Java.
- Kawi's significance: Used for inter-kingdom communication, influenced scripts in Indonesia and the Philippines.
- Ancient Malay kingdoms likely used Indian scripts and Kawi for old Malay language.
- Later development: Scholars suggest the existence of a Proto-Sumatran writing system.
- Jawi's introduction: Linked to the spread of Islam, encouraging literacy among different social classes.
- Jawi's adoption: Slowly supplanted other scripts in some areas but not entirely.
AdTypo_4_Designing Type
Two Reasons for Designing a Typeface:
- Type design carries a social responsibility, so one must continue to improve its legibility.
- Type design is a form of artistic expression.
Typeface Designers
Adrian Frutiger:
- A renowned Swiss graphic designer.
- Designed Typefaces: Univers and Frutiger.
- Purpose: To ensure clarity, distinctiveness, and legibility for both close and distant viewing.
- Consideration/Limitation: Letterforms needed to be recognizable in poor lighting and at a distance. Testing was done with unfocused letters to assess legibility.
Matthew Carter:
- A contemporary British type designer and son of Harry Carter.
- Designed Typefaces: Verdana (1996), for Microsoft, optimized for legibility on screens.
- Purpose: To ensure high legibility at small sizes, considering the popularity of the internet and electronic devices.
- Consideration/Limitation: Verdana fonts exhibit characteristics influenced by pixel grids, leading to challenges with commonly confused characters.
Edward Johnston:
- Creator of "Johnston Sans," a highly influential London Underground typeface in 1916.
- Designed Typefaces: Johnston Sans.
- Purpose: Designed for London's Underground railway to unify signage with a modern yet traditional "bold simplicity."
- Consideration/Limitation: Applied Roman capital letter proportions to harmonize a cacophony of different letter styles across the Underground, combining history and traditional calligraphy with modern elegance.
Eric Gill (Student of Edward Johnston):
- Acknowledged the influence of Johnston's work on his own typeface, Gill Sans.
General Process of Type Design:
- Research:
- Understanding type history, anatomy, conventions, and terminology.
- Determining the type's intended use and applications.
- Examining existing fonts for inspiration and context.
- Sketching:
- Designers use traditional or digital tools to create initial sketches.
- Some scan traditional sketches for digitization, while others sketch directly in digital font design software.
- Digitization:
- Professional software like FontLab and Glyphs App are used for digitizing typefaces.
- Some designers use Adobe Illustrator, but this approach is criticized by purists.
- Attention to the whole form and counter form is crucial for readability.
- Testing:
- Testing and prototyping are vital for refining and correcting the typeface.
- Readability and legibility are essential considerations, especially for text typefaces.
- Feedback from testing informs further adjustments.
- Deploy:
- Even after deployment, ongoing revision may be necessary to address unforeseen issues.
-
Rigorous testing helps keep post-deployment problems
minor.
Typeface Construction:
- Roman Capital typefaces often use a grid with a square and circle, making it easier to create letterforms.
Construction grid for the Roman Capital using 8 x 8 cells.
- Classification of characters into capital and lowercase groups based on their form and construction.
Construction & Considerations:
- Designing typefaces involves various forms and constructions.
- Visual corrections are essential, including adjusting curved forms, extrusion, and spacing between letters.
- Achieving uniform visual spacing between letters is known as "fitting" the type.
Motivation for Typeface Design:
- Intrinsic: Personal interest or solving design problems.
- Extrinsic: Commissioned work or student assignments.
AdTypo_5_PerceptionAndOrganisation
Perception is “the way in which something is regarded, understood, or
interpreted”.
Contrast
Typographical Contrast devised by Rudi Ruegg.
Carl Dair’s seven Typographical Contrast:
- Size:
- Using varying letter sizes to direct the reader's attention.
- Larger letters draw the eye first, often used for titles and headings.
- Weight:
- Using bold type to stand out in comparison to lighter type of the same style.
- Alternatives to bold include rules, spots, and squares to create visual emphasis.
Weight
- Form:
- Contrast in form involves differences in letter case (capital and lowercase), style (roman and italic), and variations in typeface width (condensed and expanded).
- Structure:
- Refers to differences in letterforms between typefaces.
- Contrasting typefaces, such as sans serif and serif, or italic and blackletter, create structural contrast.
- Texture:
- Combining size, weight, form, and structure contrasts to create the overall look and feel of a block of text.
- Texture depends on how letterforms are arranged and viewed up close and from a distance.
- Direction:
- Involves opposition between vertical and horizontal elements and angles.
- Changing the orientation of text or layout elements can have a dramatic impact.
- Color:
- Consider the tonal values of colors and choose them thoughtfully to emphasize specific elements on the page.
For refers to the overall look and feel of the elements that make up
the typographic composition. Balancing meaning and form is
important for function and expression. When a typeface is viewed as a
form, it's altered through distortion, texture, enlargement, and
extrusion, making it less like a regular letter.
Organisation / Gestalt
- Gestalt Psychology: It's about how we see and understand things as a whole, not just individual parts.
- Gestalt Laws: These are principles that explain how we naturally group elements to make sense of what we see.
- In design, the overall visual form is more important than individual elements.
- Law of Similarity: Similar elements are perceived as a unified group, whether they share color, orientation, size, or motion.
- Law of Proximity: Elements that are close together are seen as a unified group, while those further apart are not.
- Law of Closure: Our minds tend to see complete figures even when they're partially hidden or incomplete.
- Law of Continuation: When objects intersect, we perceive them as distinct and uninterrupted if they align correctly.

Task 1: Exercise 1 - Typographic Systems
In this task, we need to create layout designs for 8 Typographic Systems, including Axial, Radial, Dilatational, Random, Grid, Modular, Transitional, and Bilateral, using InDesign. We can use a maximum of three colors, including white and black.
I spent a lot of time on research, which allowed me to discover more inspiration and start sketching out some basic ideas.

I spent a lot of time on research, which allowed me to discover more inspiration and start sketching out some basic ideas.
Fig. 1.0 Research, week 1 (1/9/2023)
Process:
During class, Mr. Vinod asked us to attempt creating a layout for an axial system, but our axial system could only consist of a single line, not two lines. Therefore, my first attempt at an axial system layout was not feasible. Afterward, I designed four layouts for the axial system, as shown in Fig. 2.1.
Fig. 2.1 Axial - attempt #2, week 1 (2/9/2023)
For the radial system, my design resembles a sun, with the
circular element in the upper right corner serving as the starting
point for text radiating outward. The content text is sandwiched
between the headlines. I continuously adjusted the angles and
positions of the text, hoping to find a balance between avoiding
headline overlap and maintaining the overall composition.
I connected some text to lines leading to the red circle, resulting in the layout on the right side of Fig. 2.2. However, I wasn't satisfied with this outcome as the lines seemed cluttered. So, in my second attempt, I tried using a larger circle to partially cover some of the lines.

Fig. 2.2 Radial - attempt #1, week 1 (2/9/2023)
Fig. 2.3 Radial - attempt #2, week 1 (2/9/2023)
In the week 1 feedback, Mr. Vinod mentioned that the red
spot was too attention-grabbing and suggested I replace it
with a red outline. So, I made another revision accordingly.
Fig. 2.4 Radial - attempt #3, week 2 (6/9/2023)
For the Dilatational system, I plan to simplify it by
making all the text circular. To ensure readability, I
will also flip the text below the circle, so it can be
read upright. I find the second image in Fig. 2.5 to be my
preferred choice, as it is symmetrical and stable.
During week 2, Mr. Vinod provided feedback that the headline
doesn't need to be italicized, so I changed it as shown in
Fig. 2.6.
Fig. 2.6 Dilatational - attempt #2, week 1 (6/9/2023)
Creating a random system may seem simple, but I find it to
be the most challenging because we don't have any set
requirements. I attempt to stack all the sentences as if
they were scattered on the ground, with 'BAUHAUS' on top of
them.
In my first attempt at designing a grid system layout, I placed
the content diagonally, with half of the background in red to
enhance contrast. Besides this design, I wanted to create a
clean and tidy layout because I have never tried using non-bold
headlines before. I was satisfied with my second attempt, and I
also left plenty of white space to make the layout look more
sophisticated.
Fig. 2.8 Grid - attempt #1, week 1 (3/9/2023)
Among all the systems, the modular system is the most
interesting and my favorite layout. This time, I used black as
the background color, red to enhance contrast, and white to
balance the composition. The final product has a strong visual
impact, which I really like!
Fig. 3.0 Modular - attempt #1, week 1 (3/9/2023)
However, I encountered a problem here, as shown in Fig 3.1,
where the text in the black and white squares is not aligned
in the same position. This issue bothered me for a long
time, and my perfectionism couldn't stand it. So, I came up
with a solution: I used rectangles to measure the distances
to ensure that the text and the squares have equal spacing.
For the transitional system, my initial idea was to make the
text flow from the top left corner to the bottom right
corner. However, Mr. Vinod mentioned that this triangular
structure might be unstable, and there was too much empty
space on both sides. In my second attempt, I made the angles
of the text less sharp and added some wavy lines.
In the second week, I redesigned it, placing all the content in
the center. On the center lines, I wrote "The Design School" and
"Taylor's University," which I found interesting. I made the lines
thinner, even though they partially obscured some text, but I
didn't mind. Personally, I prefer the bottom right image in Fig.
3.5, with just a hint of red as an accent.

Task 1: Exercise 2 - Type and Play
Part 1
Part 1
In this exercise, we will be required to choose an image of a man-made object, structure, or something from nature, ensuring that it does not contain a multitude of different elements. Afterward, we will need to analyze, dissect, and identify potential letterforms within the dissected image.
I ultimately chose the image from Fig. 6.2 as my
reference because I found the structure of the bubbles
to be fascinating. The resulting black and white image
after sketching also possesses a certain aesthetic
appeal that I really enjoy!
Fig. 6.2 Trying to find letters in the images (#2),
week 2 (6/9/2023)
Fig. 6.3 Bubble features, week 2 (6/9/2023)
I have gained a general understanding of several
characteristics of bubbles through sketching the
image. As shown in Fig. 6.3, firstly, where several
bubbles intersect, shapes resembling triangles appear;
one side of the line is thick, while the other side is
very thin. Secondly, bubbles are not perfectly round
and can deform due to pressure from other bubbles.
Thirdly, large bubbles are surrounded by small bubbles
on all sides.
I found the letters B, E, A, C, and H within the
image, aligning them all on the same horizontal line.
I then selected the Playfair Display font (Medium)
from Google Fonts as a reference and drew out the
anatomy of this font.
Fig. 6.5 Extracted letterforms -
B,E,A,C,H, week 2 (10/9/2023)
Fig. 6.6 Attempt #1 - with vs. without guides
& font reference, week 2 (10/9/2023)
During the first attempt, I roughly adjusted all
the letters to resemble the shape of the font
reference. Among them, the letter 'C' was the
simplest and closest to the desired font
shape. I added three holes within the letter
'C' to represent small bubbles surrounding the
'big bubble.
In my second attempt, I adjusted the letters to
closely match the font reference. Due to the
complexity of the letter 'B,' I decided to first
create smooth edges before making further
adjustments. I chose a serif font as my reference
because serifs can add more bubble-like
characteristics to the letters. As seen in Fig. 6.8,
I made the serifs more curved and slender.
Fig. 6.7 Attempt #2 (below), week 2 (10/9/2023)
Fig. 6.8 Making the serifs more curved, week 2 (10/9/2023)
In my third attempt to improve the letters, I faced
a challenge with the letter 'H.' I wanted to create
a sense of two large bubbles, one above and one
below. However, in the letter 'H,' if the top bubble
is larger than the bottom one, it makes the black
lines of the 'H' look unbalanced. Conversely, if the
bottom space is larger, it also appears unbalanced.
To resolve this issue, I decided to make the spaces
above and below equal in size. To avoid making the
letter look rigid, I designed its crossbar to slant
upwards, creating the impression that the two
bubbles above and below are pressing against each
other, adding an interesting touch
I made small changes to the letters, aiming for
smooth edges on the outside and a bit of curvature
on the inside, as bubbles aren't perfectly round.
Fig. 7.0 Attempt #3 (below), week 2
(10/9/2023)
At this point, I noticed that aside from the
letters 'A' and 'H,' all the other letters had
some small bubbles as decorations. So, I added
small bubbles to all of them. I particularly liked
the small bubbles on the letter 'H'; they looked
quite adorable, haha!
Fig. 7.1 Attempt #4 (below), week 2
(10/9/2023)
If we consider each letter as a bubble, they would
naturally be connected. So, I connected all the
letters together.

(10/9/2023)
Part 2
Upon completing the letterforms, we will combine the letterforms with a visual of our choosing. The objective is to enhance/support the interplay between the letterforms and the selected visual. We must weave the text into a symbiotic relationship with the image.
Upon completing the letterforms, we will combine the letterforms with a visual of our choosing. The objective is to enhance/support the interplay between the letterforms and the selected visual. We must weave the text into a symbiotic relationship with the image.
I found a suitable image on Pinterest to use as the
background because the original image's colours didn't
look appealing.
Fig. 9.1 Background image, week 3 (13/9/2023)
I feel that placing my title 'BEACH' directly in the
middle of the background image already creates
similarity with the background elements, so I haven't
made any other adjustments to the title. I've set all
the letters in white to convey the white foam. Due to
this background, some of the white letters may not be
clearly visible, so I added a dark blue gradient.
I've used a centered layout design, which gives it
more of a cinematic poster feel.
I was surprised to discover that there's actually a 'movie
logo font' when I was looking for a logo symbol. I thought
fonts were just for text, so this was quite unexpected!
This logo font is very convenient to use, as it allows me
to change its color and size without getting blurry. I've
experimented with several placements for the logo, and I
think it looks best when placed at the bottom.
Final Outcome:
Fig. 10.4 10s time-lapse painting process, week 6 (7/10/2023)
Fig. 9.6 Final poster - PDF, week 3 (14/9/2023)
Honor Competition:
The theme I have chosen is "Cultural Prosperity ·
Celebration: A Totem of Renewing Festive Culture."
This theme requires creating artwork incorporating
important traditional cultural elements from
various countries, such as Lunar New Year,
Mid-Autumn Festival, Dragon Boat Festival,
Christmas, Mother's Day, Day of the Dead,
Halloween, and Eid al-Fitr. I intend to create a
healing illustration focusing on Chinese elements.
I initially sketched a design on paper (refer to
Fig. 10.0 top image). However, I felt that I might
not be able to create a proper dragon
illustration, so I decided to change it with a
family of moon rabbits.
I started colouring it using Ibispaint, with the
main colour being orange, giving it a festive and
lively feel. Because I felt the overall picture was
too dominated by orange, I added some green to make
it resemble traditional Chinese colour combinations.
In the upper-middle part of the artwork, I added
the title 'Moon Rabbits,' signifying the theme,
to fill the empty space. At the same time, I
also adjusted the placement and added or removed
some rabbits.
This work stars the Moon Rabbit family,
symbolizing Lunar New Year, Dragon Boat
Festival, and Mid-Autumn Festival with
lanterns, rice dumplings, and the moon,
capturing the attention of most rabbits (refer
to Fig. 10.3). The art style is warm, cute,
lively, and soothing, conveying the unity and
happiness of the Moon Rabbit family.
Fig. 10.4 10s time-lapse painting process, week 6 (7/10/2023)
Next, I transferred the artwork to Photoshop
and using the templates provided by Honor
competition. I cropped out specific parts of
my artwork to create the phone case design.
FEEDBACK
Week 2:
General Feedback: To reduce the size of the numbers and make
them less prominent, we can use a font size between 8 - 12 pt for
content. We don't need to implement a multilateral system layout. In
addition, we should consider whether large text helps or distracts us.
It's important to note that having the text baseline on the line can
impair readability; therefore, the text must be positioned above the
line.
Specific Feedback:
- Grid and modular are good.
- For the transitional, there's no balance between the whitespace on both sides.
- Bilateral seems a bit boring.
- The headlines for dilatational don't need to be in italics.
- For radial, the red spot is too distracting. It could be replaced with a red outline, but the idea of having that composition is good.
Week 3
General Feedback: Reflecting on your work over time
and approaching it with fresh eyes leads to better results.
Rushing through it in one day is ineffective. Time, organization,
diligence, and discipline are important. Continuously comparing
your work helps develop judgment and self-awareness. Don't choose
the gaps; choose the actual objects when designing fonts.
Specific Feedback: Good job.
REFLECTIONS
I feel like I've become a bit overwhelmed after completing exercise 1. Having to create 8 layouts in one week is quite a demanding task, but I'm genuinely satisfied with the final outcome. I have a particular fondness for the modular system and grid system layouts. In the first week, I didn't dedicate as much effort as I should have (due to time constraints), and the final result wasn't as impressive as I'd hoped. It made me realize that rushed work doesn't yield good results. Thankfully, I have a second week to make improvements. Exercise 1 has been instrumental in helping me grasp those 8 typographic systems.
I found task 2 to be a very interesting exercise. When I completed the
font design, I felt a great sense of accomplishment and was very
satisfied with the results.
Observation:
Regarding exercise 1, I've noticed that my time management skills were somewhat lacking. I spent too much time on the initial systems and research, which left me with insufficient time for the later ones. When I reviewed the work of my seniors, I couldn't help but feel that mine wasn't up to par, but I had to persevere. The research phase also provided me with a lot of inspiration, which was crucial and highly valuable.
In part 2 of task 2, while creating the poster, I started to pay
attention to what the small text and logos below the movie poster were
actually saying. I usually don't notice these details, but these small
texts and logos seemed like the soul of the poster.
Findings:
I've discovered that exercise 1 is indeed challenging, but it has given me a glimpse of what it's like to design within a limited timeframe, akin to meeting client demands. It has been an intriguing experience. Additionally, even though I had some initial sketches, I often found inspiration during the design process itself, leading me to work on layouts for another system. So, inspiration can strike at any moment.
I believe that task 2 can effectively train my ability to observe the features of images and transform them into a font. In the future, when I need to design fonts, I can use images as references to create different fonts. This is indeed very interesting.
