Typographic Structures in 8 Phases

I used text, imagery, and color to explore compositional structures and typographic layouts. These explorations culminated in the form of a perfect-bound book.
Learning Outcomes:
I learned to utilize grids and design principles, such as scale, hierarchy, and asymmetrical balance, to compose typographic layouts that communicated well.
