A friend said to me the other day that she understood how important the “font” was and that as soon as this “font” was captured everything would fall into place. I giggled to myself at her use of words, as I realised that since studying graphic design over the last 3 years I have realised how imperatively important and essential TYPOGRAPHY is within design. Once you realise its eminence, you can’t get away from it, you see that it is everywhere around us and its what makes us go “wow!” in design. Designers use type to create inspirational designs and use it as a means to communicate their ideas through their work. Using type in the correct way is very hard, and something I have always struggled with, but it is a fascinating element of design and typographical inspiration can be a great resource for designers.
I feel much more typographically aware also. The images you've posted are great examples of experimental you can be.
