Another project begins, and this time the brief is to be set by ISTD the International Society of Typographic Designers. Although technically set by istd as a competition brief, we started slightly too late to realistically enter so this will be purely intended for submission to our course.
There is an option of 5 different briefs, each totally unique however are all based around advanced typographic principles. The briefs are:
- On Yer Bike... creating an information system to help cyclists find their way around cities.
- Mutton Quad... The branding of a typographically themed restaurant.
- Fakery... To explore the wonderful world of 'Fakery' using your ingenuity and lateral thinking.
- Not Just Fleurons... To consider plants in the broadest possible ways.
- Flatland... To produce a new addition of the old novella Flatland, but not necessarily in book form.
Obviously these are snippets of each briefs, but I will look deeper into each one before I make my decision. My initial thoughts are to exclude On Yer Bike and Not Just Fleurons as they haven't got my thinking juices running like the other 3 have. But I will not discard any just yet.
