It was looking at the newly drawn lines and the legibility that these created, which gave me the idea for my final pieces.
CREATING A TYPE FACE.
Creating a type face from this map, and some of the areas located on it, which could be easily references backed to area, by using the grid reference. I thought this was a nice idea for this reason, also i like the idea that typography gives you and understanding or direction, as does a map. So creating the rutland rights of way typeface, i decided to focus on.
When producing this typography, i gave myself set rules.
- Each letter had to include 2 separate areas of map.
- There would be visual consistency through out the finished typeface.
- By the final editing of the typeface, some editing to the difficult shapes of created by the lines of the footpaths could be edited.
- However there must be an obvious resemblance to the grid references given for each letter.
