The purpose of the diploma thesis is to create a display typeface and use it in renewed graphic products, which in combination will be adjusted to suit the client's wishes, with the client being Kosovel's memorial room in Sežana. With new graphic products, we want to contribute to better promotion of Kosovel's room.
In the theoretical part, the division of typeface into groups and larger sets are presented, defining in detail some basic characteristics of typeface such as contrast, typeface stress, stroke endings, thickness of the basic stroke, and height ratios within the font. Next, the historical development of display typeface, their specifics, and their impact on various graphic products is described. Due to the content of Kosovel's memorial room, the origin and development of the artistic avant-garde direction of constructivism abroad and in Slovenia are presented in more detail, also emphasizing key events in Srečko Kosovel's life and his oeuvre.
In the practical part, we further acquainted ourselves with the client analyzing the existing brochure and posters which had already been used in the past. Based on the analysis and the conversation with the client, we created a conceptual design of the typeface and graphic products. We continued by developing the typeface in computer programs we had previously presented. The created display typeface was used in renewed graphic products, which we designed in cooperation with the client. Final products are presented in the Results section of the diploma thesis.
