Gozde Turkkan
This is an idea of the type of photos i want to take on my trip but in black and white, i want to have at least one focal point of either a person or an object or a place. I want to take this idea of capturing a lot of things and then use it on things which are specific to amsterdam.

These are interesting layouts and i like how the focal points are broken up with a line or objects, i would like to potentially experiment in some layouts like this with my image and typeface when they are completed.

Verner
This typeface called Verner is made by Emil Bertell. The structure of the typeface isn't strictly relevant to my current project but the colour schemes are really cool and eye catching, would like to incorporate simular colour schemes into my project if its relevant to my audience.
Sevigne ST typeface
This is a project by Reserves, its a really simple but elegant typeface. The colour and layouts are directed at a professional audience. The basis of the typeface seems to be constructed out of sharp angles and one or more lines.
Type experiences3
This typeface is made out of what seems to be hair, loads of thinish strands of hair. I dont think its been made into a full typeface but i have already found legibility issues as i think it spells out "Soulp" but im not sure... Interesting approach to making a typeface.
Process typeface
This typeface is called Process by Randall Church. Its made up of what seems to be various techniques and processes hence its name. I like the diversity and the colour of the typeface, it seems to give off a really textured feeling as well. As the previous typeface i looked at Oym this is another one which i cant see working as a lowercase set or infact any practical use even if its been blacked out, however this could be used to name a product or to produce a phrase or logo.
Oym Typeface
I really like this typeface as i feel its well balanced. The majority of the letter seems to be filled in and weighted to one side but then its balanced out with a thin line and serif. The background image is laid over the typeface and it makes it work well as a set. I don think this typeface could be pushed as a lower case. I like the idea of placing an image over the typeface it can make it more personal.

Leaflet Design ideas
This is a swiss air pamphlet made by karl gerstner. I like the colours used and the layout. The images and the transparent colours use to fill space balance out out well with the text. Its a very image heavy pamphlet. The text in small and significant and doesnt seem to be in any specific grid.
I like this leaflet type design as its simple and uses 3 colours +stock. The text layout is a bit boring but informative. The image and colour do work though.

What is a line?
The muse typeface is very simple just a line above and below the text.
This is typeface called Capital Type it consists of straight lines, i really like this typeface it looks crisp and accurate. Its a really simple design but looks good.
This is a design made by Oscar Bjarnason, the letters are all connected with a a line, it kind of looks like it made by a continuous line.
This is a typeface based on helvetica but its produced just using a set of lines which seem to all be in series.
This is another typeface which is made purely out of lines at a specific angle.
This font is made out of lines a series of lines which go against the background lines, its a bit hard to see and illegible but its an interesting approach to producing a line typeface.
