180 AMSTERDAM - Yomar Augusto, or as we like to call him Yomar ‘Seriffe’, takes the 180 Calligraphy Masterclass. See how we get on, and how it should be done by the master himself. There’s nice work by Kay, the teacher’s pet, but Piers definitely must try harder. Check out the pictures below. Word.

TYPOGRAPHY RULES.

Amsterdam Art — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 17:03:57 +0000

Typography is not just about letters and words, its about communication. Exposing meaning, setting a mood or feeling, giving personality to the words and message themselves.

You could argue that it is the very foundation of graphic design – along with balance, form, rhythm, harmony and colour. Most designers can place type. Very few can design it – and not many at the level of our resident craftsman, Yomar Augusto. Our young Brazilian friend is acclaimed world wide as a master calligrapher and designer of type. Yomar brings a unique typographic approach to a wide range of agency projects – building Fonts for almost all our clients. One of which, the ‘Unity font’ will appear on backs playing upon the largest of stages – as well as on a small sphere that for a month next year will be the focus of billions across the globe.
