Type Design 101 with David Sieren

Explore what constitutes a legible letterform through an intense, crash course in typographic appreciation. Explore the intricacies and aesthetic beauty of what makes up some of the most common typefaces you encounter daily through a hands-on analog drawing exercise. Then explore the minimum viable necessities required to create a legible letterform as we each create the components of our own typeface.

 

Made Possible by Poetry Magazine. Type Design 101 is a lead up event to the 10th Annual Printers Ball: Chatter, hosted by Spudnik Press Cooperative.
