FUTURA TYPE SPECIMEN

Futura is a geometric sans-serif typeface designed by Paul Renner and released in 1927. It was designed as a contribution to the New Frankfurt-project. It is based on geometric shapes, especially the circle, similar in spirit to the Bauhaus design style of the period.

This was a personal project where my objective was to explore and create type specimen posters for Futura font and also create a website for the same.
