Through studio practice and related seminars, students study typefaces and investigate the basic conceptual, contextual, and technical principles of their application in a variety of visual communications. Students explore designing with single letters, words and short phrases; spacing and arrangement; and measurement. Projects have specific parameters and refer to historic and contemporary developments in typography.
