this project's prompt was to design a website using html and css to advertise a typeface.
i chose syne because i liked its modern and simplistic look, and felt it could be adapted to a
lot of different aesthetics. it's versatility allowed for more creative potential that i could work with.
i thought it especially lent itself to imagery regarding music,
which is why the custom example pieces i made all were centered on that topic. i created a
poster for a musical artist, an album cover and a concert festival poster.
i also put some emphasis on the fact that it was made by a french studio,
as i find multilingualism to always be a creative opportunity when working with typography.
the requirements for the project were the following:
- the name of the typeface
- specs: designer, history, description
- examples of all weights
- a glyph set
- three custom designs using the typeface
- link to download the font
