Twenty Typefaces – That Changed the World We Live In, is an exploration of typographic history, opening an original field and unveiling how typographic forms have developed in response to prevailing technology, commercial needs, and aesthetic trends. The discussion of each typeface’s historical origins are illustrated visually through meticulously chosen images, symbols, numbers and/or letterforms, to give emphasis on these responses to change or character.
My publication is directed at graphic designers and students, aiding in decision making; with the plethora of typefaces, from the very first creations to revitalised versions and new initiatives (c.1455-2015), chronological arrangement and the publication’s clean and well-structured visual system ease users in electing the correct typeface with consideration to stylistic qualities, era, and historical relevance.
