Greyscale


Found this while researching greyscale prinitng. Interesting conjunction of type with image and type as image.


This was a free typeface offered on the website, it offers great clarity and simple beauty. through curvaceous strokes and large counters.

I particularly like the abstract typeface used below. it almost seems to refer to folded paper, or origami.




this really simple composition works well. The flowing lines and tonal graduation of the photograph brings you to the bottom of the image taking you past the title "book". The type also seems to mirror some aspects of the photograph with flowing lines and simple forms.
