18 Nov UNIFIED Exhibition – On Campus

Posted at 08:57h in Thoughts on... Typography by Denielle

Please visit the “Unified” exhibition of Arabic and English posters now on display in C-Wing (Level 1) at Zayed University (Dubai Campus). The UNIFIED POSTERS were created in ART 456 (Typography 2) during the Fall 2012 semester.

The project first asked students to design their own bilingual typefaces in Arabic and English including all glyphs, letters, and numbers. The goal of the poster is to promote the bilingual typeface to an audience who may use it in their field of work. The poster should convey the excitement of contemporary typographic design in the Middle East to an audience of professionals and designers. This might include: graphic designers, architects, industrial designers, book designers, publishers, communication/public relations firms, educators, in-house corporate design departments, non-profit groups, professional organizations, and more. The poster should have a strong visual layout and show the unique quality of the font.
