the typeface. initial work take 2.

Post critique with Assistant Professor Michael E. Kidwell, I was told to push more from rational, which meant a reselecting of descriptive words. All words are defined by Merriam-Webster's Dictionary; feel free to verify with the links.

new 3 words defined.

distorted defined as "to twist out of a natural, normal, or original shape or condition <a face distorted by pain>also : to cause to be perceived unnaturally <the new lights distorted colors>"
emotional defined as "dominated by or prone to emotion <an emotional person>"
refracted defined as "to alter or distort as if by refraction <to refract that familiar world through the mind and heart of a romantic … woman — Anton Myrer>"

the upper case.

DE SANDO refracted+distorted+emotional. pages may look something like this.

the pages in the PDF may look something like this. use of poetry + imagery.


new page w letters+numbers.

feedback from class+Assistant Professor Michael E. Kidwell.
think about some of the halves of the letters going up...since they're all currently going down.
the black+white of the home was nice & added a dark tone=good thing.
an overall story about suburbia or America or a trip that someone is taking might be useful for the specimen.
House Gothic does not work here, use something different...something more similar to my typeface or something that allows my typeface to take more focus.
