Research, writing, and design for a museum exhibition handout. This was done for a typography course at the University of Baltimore. The exhibition focuses on the relationships between seven typefaces throughout history—Jenson, Baskerville, Didot, Franklin Gothic, Futura, Helvetica, and Rotis—and the corresponding home styles of each period. For example, the lightness and openness of Baskerville's letters relates to the airy Georgian homes of the period. The booklet design also includes endpapers, bibliography, and colophon.
