OUGD505: TYPOGRAPHY WORKSHOP.

TYPOGRAPHY WORKSHOP.
SESSION 2.
13/3/2014









Point size, weight, colour.

How can heirarchy be determined without altering these elements?
Through position/ orientation. 

Rotating words also effects the heirachy, as words of a different orientation to straight are more difficult to read. By placing a word upside down, you give it the function of the last word to be read on the page.





10-12 is the maximum amount of words we can have on a line. Novels have around 10 words per line. 6 is the minimum amount of words that should be on a line within bodycopy. 

Indent 3-4 letter spaces.
Don't need line space and indenting, use one or the other.
