Inspiration Napoleon for Phoebus Palast Cinema, Munich Poster designed by Jans Tschichold 1927 Background Jan Tschichold left an impression upon the world of graphic design and typography that few could compete against. From strongly advocating the beauty of sans serif fonts and clean, organised design 20 years before it took off, to strengthening the design of Penguin books to turn them into the something special that they are. 1928 saw the publication of perhaps his most influential work, The New Typography. Still published, and translated to English, it was a masterpiece of modern graphic design and with its fresh and regimental guidelines of layout and clean dynamic typography.

Inspiration Derberufs Photograph Poster designed by Jans Tschichold 1938 Background With Jan Tschichold views and stance in the creative community of 1933 Germany antagonized the Nazi party who found his design to be ‘un-German’. Soon after coming into power, they raided his home and upon the discovery of materials they deemed improper, temporarily imprisoned him. Tschichold and his family relocated to Switzerland where he continued his ideas contributed to develop. Toward the end of the 30’s, he began to loosen his grip on the principals the Bauhaus had impressed upon him nearly 15 years prior. The poster to the left is one of his last adhering to the modernist style. Further Reading Graphic Design 20th Century (1890-1990) Alston W. Purvis and Martijn F. Le Coultre

Inspiration SH&L Advertising designed by Herb Lubalin, 1969 Background Herb Lubalin work as a graphic designer focused mainly on typefaces and how they could dramatically impact upon the message while much of his work is considered by many to be years ahead of its time. After a few early jobs he settled with Sudler & Hennessey, a New York based ad agency, where he stayed for some 20 years before starting his own firm; Herb Lubalin Inc. in 1964. Having his own company gave him the artistic freedom he’d craved for and enabled him to indulge in projects larger companies wouldn’t touch with a bargepole. He became involved in the design of a number of magazines devised by Ralph Ginzberg – Eros, Fact and Avant Garde. Despite the fact that he passed away over 30 years ago in May 1981, Herb Lubalin’s shadow still looms large and is a massive influence on many design studios including M/M Paris Further Reading Herb Lubalin: Art Director, Graphic Designer and Typographer Gertrude Snyder and Andy Peckolick

Inspiration Automne Hiver 86-87 Yohji Yamamoto Image from Catalogue Art Direction by Marc Ascoli and Peter Saville Photgraphy by Nick Knight Background Peter Saville is a designer whose practice spans the fields of graphics, creative direction and art. In 1979, he became a founding partner of the landmark, independent record label Factory Records where he created some of the most recognisable album covers of all time for Joy Division and New Order. In 1987 photographer Nick Knight was working on the campaigns for Yohji Yamamoto. He suggested that Peter Saville be brought in to design the 19871988 Catalogue. At the time, Saville represented an approach somewhat against the grain in the world of graphic design, which was sporting layered, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;deconstructedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; layouts with idiosyncratic and historicist motifs. Saville and Knight went on to found SHOWstudio Knight in 2000. Further Reading Designed by Peter Saville Preface Emily King

Inspiration The Gentlewoman #1 Spring / Summer 2010 Art Direction M/M Paris Photgraphy Inez van Vinoodh Matadin The Gentlewomen was launched in 2009 as the sister publication of the Fantastic Man. Veronica Ditting designs it under the creative direction of Jop van Bennekom editorial and design approach shares much with its brother. The pages rely less on masculine column rules and structure than Fantastic Man’s signature layouts, but have a familiar monochrome look and feature large chunks of white space. Headlines use Futura, never shouting, while text is Futura and Times. It’s a strikingly simple design that is very different to any other women’s magazine. It the design reference the grid and typographic styling of Jan Tschichold. The Gentlewomen was nominated for the Designs of the 2013 in the graphics category.

Composition and Typography / Notes

Type styles

Roman

Roman is the widely used type style

Italic

Italic was originally based on handwriting, and, again, is widely used. (Note that electronically sloped roman is not a true italic.)

Condensed

These typefaces are used when space is at a premium

Extended

Extended is rarely used for longer texts due to legibility issues Type styles are used to enable designers to place an emphasis on a particular word, phrase, title etc; giving flexibility and enabling a hierarchy to be distinguished the following examples show the most common styles available. Note that different terminology is used for some typefaces. For instance, italic can be called ‘oblique’, extended can be called ‘expanded’, semibold can be called ‘demibold’, condensed can be called ‘compact’ (with very condensed styles being called ‘compressed’} and bold can be medium’, The term ‘book’ can be used to describe letterforms and the slightly lighter roman. These terms are sometimes used when a roman style is changed via computer software.

abcd ABCDR

San serif Examples include Din, Frutiger, Futura, Helvetica, Monto Grotesque These typefaces have (almost) even stroke weights and without serifs. This classification is known as Lineale or Gothic

Type styles

abcd ABCDR abcd ABCDR

Humanist Examples include Schneider, Verona, Centaur and Kennerley. Formally know as Venetian, and originating in the 15th century, typefaces within this classification have varying stroke thicknesses deriving from the broad edge of the oblique pen used in calligraphy during this period. Old Face Examples include Bembo, Calso, Dante, Garamond and Palantino. These typefaces have broad pen-like strokes giving a greater contrast in stroke weight than the humanist typefaces. This classification is also known as old style or Garalde.

abcd ABCDR

Script Examples include Palace Script, Kuenster and Mistral. These were originally typeface based on calligraphic forms. They can be incredibly hard to use successful in the context of portfolios or design work so use with caution.

abcd ABCDR

Transitional Examples include Baskerville, Bulmer and Century. Typefaces classified in this group have a nearly vertical axis and high stroke contrast.

abcd ABCDR abcd ABCDR

Modern Examples include Bell, Bodoni and Walbaum. Modern typefaces have strong thick-thin contrast, vertical stress, and fine serifs. This classification is also known as Didone. Slab serif Examples include Clarendon, Memphis and Rockwell. This category of typeface has even stroke weights and heavy serifs. This classification is also known as Egyptian

Composition and Typography / Notes

Leading Leading is the term used to describe the space between lines of type. It originates from traditional letterpress printing, were the spaces between lines were constructed from strips of lead. The example below demonstrates that the space between lines of type is important as the lines of type themselves. Too little leading can lead to problems with overlapping ascenders and descenders. A large amount of leading creates too much space for the eye to travel between lines. Both cause fatigue when reading lengthy texts.

Tracking or Spacing The readability of multi-line texts is influenced substantially by the relationship between the leading and the wordspacing. The words in a line must be clearly separate from one another. At the same time, the eye must be prevented from slipping to the wrong line. It is not enough that the eye is merely obediently led along the lines, but rather that the one is able to grasp entire areas at once. The typography has to assist with this.

This is dummy text not meant to be content, but rather to create an even texture on order to evaluate typefaces more easily. One may, at a glance, quickly judge the ‘colour’, or grey value, of a typeface.
