04.Typographic Explorations


This year became an immersion: a deliberate, sometimes disorienting, and ultimately grounding descent into typographic history. While I still have much to learn, this exploration offered the deep dive I needed into the evolution of letterforms, into the ways typography both shapes and is shaped, how it holds form while communicating, and how each typeface carries its own strengths and limitations born from its particular moment, place, and use.

Many thanks to Micah Hahn for his generosity, guidance, 
and an enduring passion for typography.
