Typography Thursday

Today I had a full day of typography and its been great!

To start i had a typography workshop and experimented with layout, hierarchy, size, font, weight and spacing. Then in the afternoon i got to set my own metal type for a letterpress induction. The image below is the type i chose to use - 18 pt Times.



The image below is my name and blog address in 18pt Times.



Below is the letterpress.



After having a full day of typography I've started to get quite interested and have started reading the book Type and Typography

Here are some of my prints


I think the one below came out best
