Overview

The goal of this project was to visually communicate the distinctive qualities of the Baskerville typeface - to highlight its unique voice and showcase its physical characteristics through a printed type specimen.

Design Iterations

Drawing inspiration from Baskerville's era, I developed two designs that blend a vintage aesthetic with a modern touch. My goal was to emphasize Baskerville's classic, trustworthy qualities while showcasing its unique role as a bridge between eras and styles.
