Hand Rendered Revival Type.


This is my 2nd typography project in degree program. It is quite similar to the previous project 'Experimental Type'. It's simpler as i do not have to produce radical concept idea. In this project, it involve more on hands on meaning to sketch or trace the existing fonts you have chose and to enhance it to a new fresh idea in a low tech method. 

I chose the font 'Bauhaus' as it's characteristic and personality are simple, bold, loud, and has a consistent stroke width. with this elements i have fully research and understood, i began working on sketches on developing ideas. Then proceed to the technical part of measuring the stroke width desired, kerning and spaces. All has to be carefully measured and consistent. Then i apply the hands on work to Illustrator to edit the final artwork. I was told to produce 3 headlines with the typeface that has been redesigned. I was pretty satisfied with the result i had produce for this 2nd project. Finally had a presentation and received good feedbacks from lecturer and friends. I hope that you enjoy the creation of the typeface i have posted.

Thank you guys for the feedbacks and the compliments! =)
