OUGD504 - Guidebook - 1970s Research


After the group crit feedback I started looking into 1970s design and typography.



The majority of typefaces I found really gimmicky and I knew they wouldn't work within the context of my publication. One particular typeface did stand out to me, though.

Marvin I felt was really nice and would work well in a contemporary setting within my publication.



I came across a similar typeface free for download online called 'Marvin Visions'.


 


I started playing around with this typeface to see how it would work within my publication.

  



Straight away I wasn't keen on how this was looking alongside the collages - I didn't feel it was quite modern and contemporary enough to match the overall aesthetic of the publication.
