Choosing My Designer & Question:

I chose “Jan Tschichold” and “How did Jan Tschichold’s innovative typographic principles influence modern Graphic Design”. I picked this designer because we looked at his work during week 6, as I was really interested in his development of the Penguin books. I wanted to find out more about his work.


Research:

First, I began reading about him on the internet and borrowed a book from the library to read more about him.

Below are the websites and book I used while obtaining research:
