aside from visual research, i have been looking up type & fonts as it will play an important role in my visuals and project.
on the left is the cover of simmelkiaer grotesk, a danish publication.
i really like the pictorial insert and the simple yet strong visual.
on the top right is a 1979 stamp by karl oskar blase. mister blase is a german-born designer who founded his studio while he was still a student. he is famous for his many deutsche bundespost stamps & his covers for form magazine.
again, the work is simple and effective. the black & white gives the image all its power and the unusual disposal of the type adds a unique quality to the stamp.
in the middle right is one of the pages of design journal typographica 7 of which 32 issues were published between 1949 & 1967.
i loved the layout and text / image overlay.
and finally, bottom right is an image found on flickr.
very interesting image & font combination.
