Typography

What is it? The art and techniques of arranging type. It began in the west around 1455 when Johannes Gutenberg began printing from individual pieces of type. The artist must select the typeface, point size, line length, leading (line spacing), letter-spacing (tracking) and kerning (individual letter- spacing).

History The development of typography dates back to when man started to record information… –Pictographs- symbols that represent objects –Ideographs- as it became necessary to communicate more abstract ideas, symbols began to take on multiple meanings. Ex. The symbol for “ox” could stand for the actual ox or it could mean food. –1200 B.C. The Phoenecians who were merchants and traders needed a simplified way to record transactions- they developed the idea of these symbols representing sounds –Greeks adopted the Phoenecian alphabet which was made up of only consonants and they added 5 vowels and formalized the letters –Again, the Romans modified the alphabet adding a few new letters and they dropped the Greek designations of the letters like Alpha and Beta, for simpler ones. Our Alphabet is made up of distinct symbols that represent 1000 years of evolution. As a designer, you can simplify or embellish the letterforms, but if you alter their basic shapes you will reduce their ability to be read and communicate efficiently.
