Fonts are great design tools. But sometimes even if you have an abundance of them there are times when something other than a font may be the right typographic choice. Whether to create graphic impact, set a mood, fashion a visual pun – or just to engage readers like no font can–skillful non-font typography is more than just words on paper.
Attend this presentation and you will see some of the best non-font
typography around, learn why it was the perfect typographic choice and–most important–pump-up your creative arsenal.
*Participate in the dialogue: Submit samples of your own work or work that you find inspirational to be included in the presentation.
