OUGD403
Studio Brief 02

After the interim crit I developed the idea for my typeface, first fixing the x-height on the 'a' as it breached the x-height line, which it shouldn't.















Above is the development, I simply removed the ascending line that went over the x-height, then added a bracket at descender line. Now I've made this change the overall design of the 'a' has improved in my opinion. I'm glad I received this feedback in the crit because otherwise I possibly wouldn't have noticed the mistake I made. The older design now looks out of place with the character set I've developed, the angular lines are out of place with the contrasting curves I've now used in the design.
