Description

Contemporary Processes of Text Typeface Design offers a deep look into the specialized world of typography. Dr. Michael Harkins addresses the lack of published research regarding text typeface design by utilizing a Grounded Theory Methodology.

By drawing on evidence from world-leading practitioners such as Matthew Carter, Robin Nicholas, Erik Spiekermann, and Gerard Unger, this book provides access to subject-specific expert knowledge. It is a valuable resource for those studying the technical and theoretical sides of type creation. This publication is designed for scholars and professionals interested in design research, design epistemology, and the evolution of design processes. Whether you are studying typography or type design, this text provides the academic foundation needed to understand how professional typefaces are developed.
