Helvetica Bold

My typeface for Brief 01 will be based on Helvetica Bold and as decided in my previous post, the letterforms will take a similar form to those created in my Collab. typeface.

I have been advised that my handdrawn letterforms should be at least 5cm to be legible when scanned in and for maximum detail. Helvetica Bold has more room within it for experimentation. Helvetica Bold uppercase, lowercase, glyphs and numbers where layed out in InDesign and printed at A3 as a base for my new typeface creation. From these print outs I can trace and design my own letterforms.
