However, after receiving feedback on the idea, I realized the design was not compelling enough. As a result, I began experimenting with three-dimensional shapes to make the poster more engaging, as suggested during my critique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using basic shapes and primary colours, I wanted to showcase the ideas of foundations and how these type categories used in the poster are often used to identify different typefaces. I also used lines throughout the design to enhance the visual interest and to tie it back into the Bifur typeface that inspired the poster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In total, I spent around 13 hours researching and compiling information for this project and overall, I would give myself a 14\/15 for the poster. One of the challenges that I faced while creating this project was finding a way to incorporate all the information while also making it visually interesting. Because of this, I found that the format of the information that I have on my poster seems a bit disorganized, with gaps of white space between graphics and text. If I could go back and improve this poster, I would go back and try and rearrange different elements to minimize the empty space present in the design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, this project was difficult in finding solutions to fit everything in, but I had fun being challenged and stepping out of my comfort zone to create the final end product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sources:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/creativepro.com\/typetalk-type-classifications\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/creativepro.com\/typetalk-type-classifications\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While researching the characteristics of the different typefaces, I stumbled upon Bifur and got inspired to incorporate its elements into my poster.
