In this project I learned about the fundamentals of typography. With the use of a 12x12 format and one font at one size only, I took eighty words from a book of my choosing. I began my process by splitting the paragraph up so that I can use the words across the entire format. The project's prompt has many limitations, however this allows me to investigate how to manipulate a typeface through leading, kerning, and tracking. Through this, I can create contrast across the format with active negative space. This was a challenging, yet very rewarding and educational project.
