PROCESFOLIO ELKE GOOSSENS
INTRODUCTION This procesfolio contains work that I made during my third bachelor. It mainly consists my research on the topic eruption and the subsequent investigation of choice.

TYPOGRAPHY Design two fonts. The first font has a formal approach with the year theme as inspiration and will result in a “classic” usable digital font. The second one has a conceptual approach with “Audio and type” as main theme. I went to get my inspiration from the theme eruption. I then continue brainstorming and lead me to the material polyurethane. After I experimented with this I have switched to Nodebox. Here I was using a grid of triangles that overlap with my font. The idea is to actually make a font where never two of the same characters places next to each other. In this case a variant of that letter will automatically be chosen.

PATTERNS For my bachelor assignment I went examining something what lays most to my interests. We are all busy with designing stuff, but there was one thing missing in my abilities and I would like to approach this before I graduate. Namely color theory. We can all identify the most beautiful colors but do we know which meaning or influence these colors have on us or the spectator? I started my research of the basic colors and went then to patterns because they are the basis of a combination of 2 colors, like polka dots and line patterns. From these basicspatterns I went experimenting with silkscreen and photography, this resulted in soms interesting and sometimes funny combinations.
