Pautsch Typeface
During
class we had the opportunity to create a typeface that represents ourselves.
Using our initials, we were to design a type any way we pleased. At the start
of this project, I found that I had become stuck and didn't know what to
create. I figured the best way to get past this block was to just draw and let
my ideas flow freely. Being a designer has taught me to research before
starting a design. But in this case I was unable to do so. I found this to be a
good thing because I could truly let my artistic mind come through. There were
some ideas that I created that did not flow in the way I wanted to. Some of my
designs worked, while others didn't. So when faced with a typeface that didn't
work, I combined it with another to try to create something that might work! In
the end I chose a design that was bold yet delicate. After finishing it, I was
very happy with the design and could even see it used with color or maybe used
on an Easter product. I would be interested in trying to design the lowercase
letters for this typeface. Overall this was an amazing learning experience that
has helped me learn how to work with creating something that works, out of
something that may not.
