Final Major Project

An unexpected byproduct of the digital age is that it has become harder to forget than to remember. The energy needed to obtain information from either a hard drive or the Internet has diminished to almost nothing. It is less demanding to use a search engine than memorise and retrieve information for ourselves. I intend to design and utilise of a set of contemporary mnemonics to assist memory and recognition for the digital generation.

Some Type






Above is a rather dull spread from the layout I have been working on. Hopefully with the addition of colour and the photographs it will liven it up a bit. Currently in Futura Medium and Joanna. Since I am going to have a lot of large scale numbers in my book it seemed worth trying to create some interesting numerals. These are rough workings for 5, 2 and 7.  I hope to create an "edited" version of Futura to use for titles and headings to accompany the numerals.
