Course Detail: PCDS-152 - COMMUNICATION DESIGN AND STRATEGY- TYPOGRAPHY II

 

 This required typography course is the second in a sequence of three, that develops an understanding of 2D design space and the unique nature of typographic communication principles. Building on Typography I, students expand their ability to work with typographic form, understanding the nuance of language-based messages, and organization through projects that introduce organizational systems, grids, and the associated nomenclature. Classifications, and anatomy of letterforms, are integrated into projects, language hierarchy, image, and rhetorical elements in order to develop sequential narrative communication. This course helps students apply the role of analog and digital tools to achieve well-crafted solutions with specific intent. Content used in this course presents design's complex history, while also providing students the opportunity to lend their point of view on content analysis. Students may elect to take additional typography courses, Publication Design, Type IV, and Type Design in their junior year.
