Mapping Typefaces
Editorial design
Completed as a college project for my Graphic & Multimedia Design B.A.
The briefing asked for the elaboration of a book showcasing typography and its influence and evolution of types of typography through the years.
For this project, I chose to demonstrate typography's influence and evolution in cartography and maps in general.
As such, the typographies and fonts represented in the book can be either found in cartographies, or were created for maps and signage.
