Description

This research-focused book examines the knowledge and processes behind text typeface design through rigorous Grounded Theory Methodology. Dr Michael Harkins develops a comprehensive tripartite theory grounded in evidence from world-leading type design practitioners, including Matthew Carter, Robin Nicholas, Erik Spiekermann, and Gerard Unger. The work offers scholars and professionals in design research, design epistemology, typography, and type design a detailed exploration of how expert typeface designers approach their craft. By synthesising insights from the field's most respected voices, this Routledge publication fills a significant gap in published research on text typeface design processes, making it essential reading for anyone studying design theory, professional typography practice, or the methodologies that shape contemporary type design.
