Project description

I made this brochure all about the font, Futura. Futura is a typeface that is tall because the ascenders go quite high. I made the brochure very tall and narrow to reflect Futura. Futura lives up to its name and is a timeless font. It was futuristic for its time as it was created in 1927. I chose silver metallic paper to print the brochure on. On the front I wrote, "Futura remains the font of the future since 1927." I took the geometric letter "O" in Futura and placed Futura on top of the 'O" twice to make Futura abstractly resemble the rings of Saturn. In the brochure, I placed the beginning rendition of the typeface. And of course I paid homage to the font designer, Paul Renner by placing his name in silver under a paragraph of type.
