OUGD504 - SB01 - Crit

OUGD504

SB01



Crit

Ideas:

- hotdog fold
- poster
- uk illustration with north south divide
- writing about the south will be in a typeface by a southern foundry
- writing about the north will be in a typeface by a northern foundry
- Book that reads the northern guide on one side and flips to be the southern guide on the other 

Feedback:

- Fold out poster is a good starting point
- Type Heavy 
- illustrations should be informed by the chosen typefaces
- typefaces don't necessarily need to be by a northern designer as long as it has the characteristics of the north. (vis versa)
- north could be shown using a sans serif typeface and the south could be shown using a serif font. (south shown as more gentrified/sophisticated, stereotypes)
- Value typeface, Colophon 



Value Sans


Value Serif
Response:

Characteristics of the north:
- Industral
- grunge
- friendly
- grey

Possible typefaces

Characteristics of the south

Possible typefaces




King's Caslon - Dalton Maag


English 1766 - A2 Type

Royalty free equivalent:


The typefaces must represent the north or south but also work well as a combination. The chosen typefaces will influence the illustrations.
