Specimen Book

Challenge: As someone in design, how do you know which type will be appropriate for your project? Designers need a detailed understanding of the typeface they will be using for important projects.

Duration: 2 months

Programs used: Adobe InDesign, Adobe Illustrator

Solution: An in-depth specimen book on the Operetta typeface that summarizes not only the history of the typeface, but its designer and foundry. The guide offers side-by-side comparisons with two other popular typefaces and displays the typeface in its many weights. Two additional glyphs were created for this project to learn more about the structure of the typeface.
