Bodoni Typeface Poster

Bodoni Typeface Poster
Poster to sell Bodoni typeface on fonts.com. The digital mock-up came from uiconstock.com
The idea for this assignment was to create a poster that fonts.com might be willing to use to sell the Bodoni typeface. I wrote a short introduction to Giambattista Bodoni and the typeface he created. Because Bodoni is Italian, I searched for colors in shades or tints  associated with Italy. Of the choices I came up with, the green background was best received in peer feedback. My instructor suggested the darker shade of green for the glyphs, which I think works well. The Q, s, and g are turned at the same angle. The margins at the top an bottom are equal and the right and left are equal except for the glyphs running off the page. I let the word BODONI run past the top and bottom margins so the design wouldn't look too square.
Final design in larger size, so text can be read.
Final design in smaller size to fit on the screen.
