Type Design Essentials

Learn the foundational principles that shape every typeface. This workshop guides you through the history, anatomy, and craft of type design—from understanding serifs and spacing to recognizing how letterforms communicate meaning. Whether you’re a graphic designer looking to deepen your typographic literacy or a curious creator exploring a new medium, you’ll emerge with a stronger eye and practical knowledge.

Over the course, we’ll examine typefaces that have defined eras, dissect what makes certain designs work, and show you how to think critically about letterforms in your own work. You’ll develop skills applicable whether you ever design type yourself or simply want to understand it better.

  • Video lessons covering type history, anatomy, and classification
  • In-depth analysis of canonical typeface designs
  • Practical exercises in letterform critique and evaluation
  • Downloadable reference guides and specimen sheets
  • Access to the creative community for ongoing discussion
