Neville Brody: Type Research

Neville Brody: Type Research

Typeface Two, designed for The Face, 1984, used from issue 50 onwards
Typeface Four, designed for The Face, 1985, used from issue 61 onwards
These are two typefaces created by Neville Brody. They were both designed for the Face magazine
Typeface two- the B and R have similar forms, the same is true for typeface four. Typeface two is a much thicker typeface, than typeface four, and has greater readability at smaller point sizes. Typeface two is very utilitarian and they are both plain. Typeface four is more elongated and quite narrow. I like Neville Brody's bold use of type, I think my poster will have a similar theme, as I want the type to be the main focus.
