D3 F23 Trope
Aray Contreras
The trope project was meant to encompass formal cliché and content associated with our designated family. Trade Gothic's history dates back to newspaper headlines and trade jobs. I decided to focus on trade jobs and designed packaging for tools that could be used in this setting. My color palette was influenced by construction colors. In addition, I made tool and head shape out of characters in order to display the variety of weights in the family.

With our appointed typefaces, the goal was to design something that would capture the spirit of the typeface. I was given futura. Upon initial research, I felt as though an old VHS cover would embody the typeface the best. After sometime, I changed my direction to see something that would better fit it. I decided to design packaging for mathematical items. I designed packaging for mathematical set of instruments, graphing calculator, and an adjustable triangle. It felt appropriate due to the geometrical and mathematical nature of the typeface futura.

For this Project, we had to again use our randomly assigned type family. Mine was Garamond, and we were tasked with creating a trope. I decided to create candle packaging inspired by the old-style serifs. I designed packaging for Garamond light, bold, and italic. Each has a scent description that ties into the typeface, as well as its history and designer.

For this project, we had to design something according to a trope associated with a font that we had been assigned. I was assigned Sabon, an old-style serif, which has been used for things like titles, labels, and logos. I describe Sabon as formal and proper. When thinking of what to design, I settled on something that is associated with formal and proper things, wine. I created a design for the bottle itself, as well as the box it would be contained in, with three different flavors mirroring the roman, italic and bold versions of Sabon.

This is the trope project, in my opinion is the most difficult one. We had to find something related to our typeface that could become a physical object. I got a suggestion to do soap since Gill Sans was a more roundish serif. Overall was fun to experiment and see the possibilities.

In this project we use the font that we had from our previous project to create a trope. I did cans since my font Meta has a bunch of styles to it. So, my idea was since cans have so much flavored to them so this Meta with their fun styles.
Maggie Zeng
Using the font family that we were assigned we were assigned to create packaging that represented the type family itself. Scala has three different type families, one of these families is Scala Jewels. I made jewelry packaging for Scala, Pearl, Saphyr, and Diamond.
Nick Laszlo
For our next project, we were asked to design a trope for our assigned font. I was assigned the font, Baskerville, and the trope I decided to design was men's cologne packaging and bottles. I designed three different scents, each one with a different weight, color, and design. I included the font's history and the designer on the back of the packaging.

The Trope Project had us use the same typeface that we were assigned for the Font Mannerism Folio. I made my typeface into a coffee brand with various blends and roasts, further exploring how highway iconography can be used to market the Interstate typeface.

We had to create a Trope for our typeface and I decided on making packaging for a computer box based off the typeface Univers. I went with giving my packaging a Universe type style with blue and yellow like stars and a sky. The typeface did it's own work on looking sleek and futuristic. I used Univers "o" to create my craters on my planets. Also I wanted to do a play on words of Universe and Univers thus why under the laptop their is a slogan with a yellow E to make u see both words.

In this project we were assigned to build a trope with a random given font. I got the font Helvetica and decided to build out a brand of soap boxes. I picked soap as Helvetica's clean sleek, and simplistic properties felt like they accurately paired with that of a soap box. Maintaining a simplistic but effective design strategy I built out three different kinds of soap, each featuring a different font weight. I have a custom gradient on the front of the box paired with a illustration to visualize the different types of soap boxes. On the bottom of the packaging also features a picture and information about the creator of Helvetica.
