GARAMOND |1615

Garamond is an Old Style typeface. Claude Garamond, who died in 1561, was originally credited with the design of this elegant French typeface; however, it recently has been discovered that this typeface was designed by Jean Jannon in 1615. Many of present-day versions of this typeface are based on Jannon’s design, although they are all called Garamond. This is a typical Old Style face, having very little contrast between the thicks and thins, heavily bracketed serifs, and oblique stress. The letterforms are open and round, making the face extremely readable. The capital letters are shorter than the ascenders of the lowercase letters.

BASKERVILLE

Generous

Baskerville, an elegant, well-designed elegant typeface is an excellent example of a Transitional typeface. Transitional typefaces are so called because they form a bridge between the Old Style and the Modern face. Compared to the old style, Baskerville shows g reater contrast between the thicks and thins, serif are less heavily bracketed, and the stress is almost vertical. The letters are very wide for their x -height, are closely fitted, and are of excellent proportions-making Baskerville one of the most pleasant and readable typefaces.

BODONI Giambattista Bodoni, 1798

Abstract

Profound

Heavy

Modern

Bodoni is a Modern typeface, designed in the late 1700s by the Italian typographer Giambattista Bodoni. At the end of the eighteenth century a fashion grew for faces with a strong contrast between the thicks and thins, unbracketed serifs, and a strong vertical stress. These were called Modern faces. All the older faces became known as Old Style, while the most recent faces-just prior to the change-were referred to as Transitional.Although Bodoni has a small X-height, it appears very wide and black. Because of the strong vertical stress, accentuated by its heavy thicks and hairline thins, the horizontal flow necessary for comfortable reading is impaired. To compensate for this effect, Bodoni therefore must be well leaded.

Helvetica is a contemporary typeface of swiss origin. Although typefaces without serifs were used in the nineteenth century, it was not until the twentieth century that they became widely used. Helvetica was introduced in 1957 by Haas type foundry and was first presented in the United States in the early 1960’s.

Although Helvetica has large x-height and narrow letters, it’s clean design makes it very readable. Sans serif types in general have relatively little stress, and strokes are optically equal. Because there is no serif to aid the horizontal flow that we have seen is so necessary to comfortable reading, sans serif type should always be leaded.

Futura is the classic example of a geometric sans serif type. Its original concept was based on the Bauhaus design philosophy that “form allows function.” Futura uses basic geometric proportions with no weight stresses, serifs, or frills, with long ascenders and descenders that give it more elegance than most sans serif typefaces. The wide range of weights plus condensed faces provide a variety of ways to set short text blocks and display copy with a strong, no-nonsense appearance.
