If you are a designer, what you will master here will be a fundamental element in your creative career. Understanding the governing rules of typography will allow you to masterfully set the tone of your design, establishing subtle hierarchy within the composition to control the attention of your viewers.

Why I made this course

There are so many traps and mistakes you can make from a visual disharmony to the disruption of legibility and readability of text in your compositions. I created this program so you can intuitively avoid these and make typography work.

By the end of this course you will develop a critical eye for the right font, see how to slightly adjust them to make the good perfect – and that difference is what makes a designer and his work stand out.
