Week 1 - SDL

For our SDl we were asked to do some research about the designers we are including in our pamphlet to help us understand the information we are presenting.

Joseph Churchward

Joseph Churchward is a New Zealand designer that has designed an impressive amount of typefaces in his career. He worked with the german company Berthold Fototype who distributed his fonts throughout the world. He passed away in 2013 so I found it incredibly interesting that he was a keynote speaker for this conference.

Below are some examples of his work:

Mark writes: “I associate this period, the 1880s in very monochromatic tones, probably because of the influence of photography. I like the fact that Victorians did enjoy having vibrant colours in their homes. I love that the ephemera collection tells us a bit about this past.”
