Garamond Type Specimen

A type specimen must make the typeface look appealing to designers in a way that they’ll start thinking of ways to incorporate it into their work. Showing the type in a bold, new, and out of box way will attract more than showing it in a traditional sense.

I found success not only in blowing up the letters to show the finer details, but in placing the typeface in a modern and glowing setting to show that there are different places Garamond could stand out and fit in. The neon colors outline the simplicity and curves of Garamond, showing that a lot of thought went into the design of this type. Ultimately, I’ve shown just how timeless Garamond is.
