How Culture Affects Typography
Get a keener eye for your surroundings and a heightened awareness of how typography plays a part in your day-to-day life when you join designer, blogger and type nerd Nikki Villagomez for a cultural study that’s as fascinating as it is crucial to good design. You’ll get a look into how culture affects the decision processes of everyday life in this session, as Nikki uses pictures to compare and contrast type choices based on geographical location.
3 Main Take-Aways:
- How people’s day-to-day surroundings play a role in their decision making process by seeing images from completely different regions side by side
- Historical information from different parts of the world and how that has shaped unique typographic styles
- The importance of fueling your passion and how that makes one a better designer
