Typographic Identity
Rationale for Project
The main inspiration for Typecon 2022 Skeuomor was the word Skeuomorphia. Skeuomorphia is utilized in user interface design to describe interface objects that mimic their real world counterparts in how they appear and/or how the user can interact with them. The term Steuomorphia was chosen for inspiration because Skeuomor mimics its real world counterpart of Typecon. Typecon is traditionally a typography conference that takes place over five days and consists of many workshops and speakers
Overall, the design for Typecon 2020 Skeuomor was a challenging experience that helped me to further explore typography and understand how important it is to understand how to have many systems of type appear cohesive through a book. Through an intricate type system, color, and concepts I was able to bring the concept of Skeuomorphia to life. I present to you, Typecon Skeuomor.
