The theme of this course is the integration of type and image. The primary goal of the projects is how to achieve a harmonious and effective interplay of typography and imagery to express meaning. Through a confident use of grids, color, images, type, and visual hierarchy, students will explore a variety of solutions to design problems that require both expressiveness as well as an understanding of the practical uses of communication design. With an emphasis on formal and semantic issues, assignments will demonstrate how typography, photography, and other forms of image making may be combined to shape the form and content of communication.
