In this Advanced Typography project, students first researched and wrote about one type-related subject. Topics ranged from reviews of design podcasts and movies, to interviews, to research about type designers.

Students then pooled their writing and used that as the content for their magazines.

Students learned and used advanced typesetting skills in Indesign, created grids and systems, and created finished printed magazines.

Courtney Simchick’s square Ligature frames the content and uses a friendly, readable type design, giving the design a space to change from feature to feature, and still keep an inviting quality.
