Type assignment!
When I first got the brife about he type assignment I tried to think in big picture terms,
how is it going to be, what color do I want to present? I started by thinking word by word and brainstroming step by step until I got an idea to present and interrogate each word's meanings by using line, tone, colortexture, etc. I have tried to connect four ideas together and came up with the concept ' GLOWING IN THE DARK '
Moma!

I have another one example of how simple but look good and perfect in one lay out with Helvetica on the top. Even though in the same lay out mix with different kind of Helvetica styles ; bold, medium,roman,light etc.
