Type Designs

"Loud"
  1. Size- the letters are large, making it seem big and 'loud'
  2. Shape- each letter is a different font
  3. Color- the colors are clashing with each other
  4. Texture- the letters have a multicolored mesh to it
  5. Background- the background is a sharp red and yellow, and the traced cat lines are doubled up, almost putting strain on your eyes


"Quiet"
  1. Size- the words are small
  2. Shape- the 'quiet's in the circle formation
  3. Color- the colors are soft and easy to look at
  4. Location- the word is sitting in the exact center, and well as the 'quiet's in the circle
  5. Background- just like the color, the background has soft and muted colors

"Stable"
  1. Size- the word is tall and the letters are thick, giving it that 'stable' and sturdy look
  2. Shape- the word is underlined, giving it that extra sturdy look on the word
  3. Color- the colors are greyscale, which gives it a simple, yet structural look
  4. Style- the font has little ticks on each point, which makes it look like there are little things holding the letters up. Also there is a horse in there because horses live in stables and I like to think I'm funny
  5. Background- the background has an even grid on it
"Active"
  1. Shape- the font is round and 'fun-looking'
  2. Color- The letters are pink with a white glow, and the background is a bright green; the pink and green being contrasting colors
  3. Orientation- the words repeat themselves and go in a swirled pattern, making it look like it's moving
  4. Location- the words are swirled everywhere
  5. Background- the background are varying shades of green that are the opposite (negative) to the pink words
"Implied"
  1. Size- the word is as big as it can be, implying 'implied'
  2. Color- black on white, making it simple to see the difference
  3. Style- the word is reacting to the background, so it looks like there is no background or foreground
  4. Texture- there is a grid, as well as a gradient that goes through the word and the background (which was hard to do, I had like, 10 clipping layers in this piece)
  5. Background- the background is, as stated previously, reacting with the word and the white bars crossing through
"Camouflage"
  1. Size- the word is small and hidden
  2. Shape- the word is warped into one of the cats in the background
  3. Color- everything is a different shade of blue, making it look like the classic camo style
  4. Style- the word is warped, making it harder to read, and more camouflaged into the background
  5. Background- the background is cats. I was going for the whole "camo" style pattern, but with cats, because I like cats
"White on Black"
  1. Size- the words are big, but not necessarily easy to see
  2. Shape- the letters are bold and close together
  3. Style- the white cross-hatching goes over the "BLACK" lettering
  4. Location- each word is on one side of the piece, following the gradient going on
  5. Texture- Crosshatching white and black  to make a gradient
"Hand-Written"
  1. Size- the letter is big, so you can see every texture and mistake
  2. Color- the color is that of a pencil, which is a tool to write with your hand
  3. Style- the letter is based off a already made font, BlackJack
  4. Texture- the vine charcoal made it look more textured than regular charcoal or pencil would
  5. Background- it is simple paper
