Reflection

Experience:

From the start of week 1 to week 14, I have struggle to keep up with the assignment work that is given by Mr Vinod where I was always found myself need to finish other assignment from my other module as well. The lecture that was given to us by Mr Vinod has been straightforward and easy to understand due to him showing example to us and also provide essential suggestion to our work. 

Observation:

From I observe in this module is that Typography has evolved a lot throughout the human history to where it can been found every where around especially in the internets where the different font type can be found as well as text placement design. Where my understanding of typography is also deepen where the design and detail of the word font type is not so simple as it seem as the process of design a new font type can complicated, but simple at the same and lastly there is no being original instead there is only doing better at your design.

Findings:

What I have found is that Typography has very place in human history as throughout the century it has been practice and develop over the ages, from handwritten calligraphy to font type digitization. It can found everywhere from poster to website as well as many place where word and sign can be found.
