Typography Critique Week 3 - Two Point Sizes, One Weight
Welcome to the Typography Week 3 Critique
Have you ever been stuck while designing something and wanted professional feedback on your work? We understand that the design process could be tough when you don't have guidance through the process. If you want to learn why basic typography skills matter, this critique is for you.
In this episode, we asked students from our Typography 01 class to submit their assignments to receive critiques. Chris Do will conduct the critique live so we can all learn together.
In this part 3 of 7 critique episodes, we will review the concept of "Breaking down and learning how to see" using One Weights, and Two Point Sizes. We'll talk about how to group sections based on importance and hierarchy.
