A Modern Dance Performance
Objective
This project examined how typography can be utilized to establish a clear visual hierarchy and direct the viewer’s attention. By experimenting with scale, weight, spacing, and alignment, I developed and compared multiple solutions to the same design problem. Through this process, I evaluated how typographic decisions influence readability, emphasis, and overall communication.
