BEYOND THE FONT

The Art of Typography

Student-designed typography artwork featuring the words “[featured text]” arranged with [distortion, repetition, imagery, or other visual treatment] to express [idea, theme, or mood], created in Adobe Illustrator.

Students explore typography as both language and visual art, transforming letters and words into expressive design elements. Through experimental type treatments, repetition, distortion, image integration, and creative composition, they discover how the form, scale, placement, and style of typography can communicate meaning, establish mood, and strengthen a visual concept. This evolving collection features imaginative typography projects created in Adobe Illustrator.
