The Brief: Select a typeface to research and visually represent the typeface and its history in a cleverly designed poster, which highlights the selected typeface.
Results: I chose the typeface Monotype Grotesque. Monotype Grotesque was introduced to address the need for a typeface with an Avant-Garde appearance to fit in with the design concepts of the day and was commonly used in newspapers and large print up to 72 point. I designed my poster to reflect the Avant-garde trends of the time and included a background texture and colors to mimic old newsprint.
