Typography Project

Typography Project: 

In Ecomm, we learned about fonts and typography. Different fonts go along with different things better than others. For example, you wouldn't want to see the Comic Sans font on a gravestone, you would like to see a more serious font. Fonts also have typefaces. Typefaces are the lines and spaces on letters. Where it curves on a lowercase h is a shoulder. That is a typeface.

What I have Learned about Typefaces: 

Each letter has multiple typefaces, even if it is a capital letter or lowercase letter. The letter l has a sterm because of the straight line. It also has a serif which is the little feet on it. An a has a counter for the large connected gap in the middle. The curve that makes that gap os called a bowl. And the drop-off at the top is called a terminal. An o is almost the same except it doesn't have a bowl or a terminal, it has a hairline instead. A hairline is the part where it gets thinner at the top and bottom.
