type hunt & typography wall activity- 25th sept.

group type hunt & type wall activity

Morning session -A type hunt within Cardiff central is what I completed this morning with a small group of my friends in the class, my group had 6 words to find mainly while walking around Cardiff there was so many different type faces that could be found on shop signs, posters anywhere you looked there was some type of fonts that was eye catching.

I found this group activity fantastic to do in a group as it gave me the time to improve my bonds with some of the peers in the coruse and also have the time to look for different types faces in my local area.

Some of the typefaces I found in Cardiff central area. Every photo was taken from my iPhone.

Afternoon session- after this morning type hunt the photos that were taken I had to use in my big group to draw and cut out letters on colours paper to decorate a wall that given to us, everyone in my group worked together so well to our wall covered and colourful, I did a lot of mixture of small detailed typefaces and one or two big ones.

Here is what the wall looked like at the start, as a group the idea was to create from the middle and layer then work our way out to fill the space.
