Fig. 1.1: Final Project - Dhivehi Thaana script I began by studying one of the available Thaana fonts; I chose one that was commonly used in both formal and informal instances, titled 'A_Waheed.'  Fig. 1.2: Final Project - Thaana font A_Waheed I looked at how the letters were designed, particularly the ends of the letters, and tried to design a lowercase typefaces inspired from elements of the Thaana script.

23/09/20 - 21/10/20 (Week 6 - 9) Ahmed Yaman Ibrahim (0341119) Advanced Typography Project 1B INSTRUCTIONS PROJECT 1B Collateral (Week 6-9) For Project 1B, we were to design collateral using the key artwork from Project 1A, such as posters, an animated invite, tshirts etc. We started with the poster.

He also suggested that I adjust the shape of the text for "Constructivism" some more, as it still feels a bit distorted. I worked on the animated invite and tshirt designs as well. Fig. 1.4: Project 1B - Poster variation 4 (final) Fig. 1.5: Project 1B - Poster (PDF) Animated Invite I designed the animated invite based on the poster. Fig. 3.5: Project 1B - Animated ...
