I knew within 3rd year I wanted the opportunity to collaborate with my peer Sarah. This evening we managed to decide on a brief we wanted to collaborate on and discussed how to go about doing it.
The Type Factory brief I started researching, we have chosen to work together on. We have found a more direct approach to the brief as before it felt very lengthy and time consuming. We are still not sure how long we will be available to complete the brief so we've prepared two options, a short and long approach.
Our Notes:
The idea of a timeline, a Journey
Potential location - Corn Exchange
- Emma Fish in Vis Com has organised events within
Promotional Material :
- Logo
- Postcards
- Posters
Ask studios to submit work
Booklet - Educational of typography, lessons in typography, education within hand held elements
Look at the first real type. Old. Compare.

Page 46: Type back to basics
Choosing 10 typefaces
Type floor murals to advertise
Overall Theme : Type back to basics

- How it was executed (Letterpress etc)
- Picking 10 typefaces

Look at typographic exhibitions / museums already existing
Look at decorative typefaces (hand rendered) where they have been used, how and why
