Versus Theory and Typography tag-team

100_7389

Although this update is a bit behind schedule (almost a week to exact) I made quite a bit of progress.

Firstly, I demolished about seven theory books. (And I'm still really surprised by how fast you can ready if you really put some effort into it). The most significant of these were Text on Type and The Education of A Typographer. Although primarily filled with pretentious Modernist Critical Writings, in the vein of ‘The Crystal Goblet’. I found a few relevant treasures here and there.

Secondly, against all expectations I finished the last basic layout of the last few type treatments for Liewe Schalk Venter. Hopefully I’m going to start with the smaller (dare I say fine) typography today.
