Typography

For my assignment on typography, I chose the word “smooth.” I was having trouble thinking of an adjective so I glanced around the room and saw my laptop. I thought about the first word I would use to describe it, and the word “smooth” came to mind. The adjective works well to describe myself because I believe I am level-minded and think smoothly. I first created a text box and typed my word in. I went through the font choices and found the font Skia, which looked exceptional good with my word. I choose this font because of the large, bulky text it creates. In order to really project my adjective, I knew I had to choose a sans serif font. I also decided to bold the text in order to give it a more visually appealing look. I kept the color of the word black in order to give it some definition. However, I had to increase the font size of the word to 89 so it could pop out on the page. Overall, I really enjoyed this assignment and I found it helpful when learning about fonts.
