Cheque and Jaapokki Research

Cheque Input Text and Research

The Cheque typeface is made by designer Mirela Belova, this font was developed as part of a student project but has then grown to its full potential. The font is based on geometric shapes and has a vintage look. Her creations were made in tandem with Fontfabric.


The images in which the font is being used is very modern. It could work in advertising coffee shops and café’s. This font gives me a chance to analyse and develop my own understanding about it. I may need to search up alternative fonts as the history behind this font is very limited.

Jaapokki Research

Jaapokki was created by Finnish designer Mikko Nuuttila. He trusts in clever thinking, the latest technology, and collaborative effort, and aims to have fun while working on his own projects and studies.  He has also created a font called Rentukka which has personal diagritic marks.

The font is brilliant to stand out in posters, headlines and other documents. It’s a new font that has not yet been incorporated into big projects but it’s unique style makes it ideal for modern creations in print design. I know that I am going to use it in my future projects. 


The enhance and subtract variations of the font give a very interesting look. They would be brilliant to be used in modern branding tasks. The bold lines and defined edges gives it its modern look that catches the eye very well.


This image of the wolf shows the impact of the text over Black and White. It has a very simple look but creates a big impact. The unique look of selected characters including the ‘W’ and ‘O’ make it very visually pleasing for the viewer.

Contrast Poster

Image
Shown above is the original arrangement of the contrast poster. In this poster, I am showing the contrast between a bird covered in oil and a bird untouched. This is representing oil spills that cause massive harm to ecosystems in the ocean and on coastlines. I am happy with the use of two birds that create contrasts between colour. I was not completely happy with the layout as it is not as effective as my other productions. The background of the poster is also too dark and doesn’t bring out the colours in the white bird. By brightening the background, it will make the white of the bird become more prominent.   Shown above is my final design of the contrast poster. I changed the layout to help make the white bird show freedom and health compared to the bird covered in oil. This layout fills the page and makes it more interesting to look at. The white bird also signifies hope in keeping wildlife safe from negative human effect...

Illustrations logo idea

Image
Above and below I have show another concept I have created. Below I have shown an illustration drawn in one of my classes. The sun in the illustration is something I want to use in the design of my label, it creates an eye catching aspect. Colours is also something I need to concentrate on as the green and orange, red and beige, don't connect with the Peroni colours.

Final Designs

Image
Shown above are my final designs for the project. I have used a range of colours to indicate flavourings. After testing colours I finally used a two tone effect, giving the design some further depth. You can also see how I have altered the design in order to fit in the name of the flavour. This creation of space doesn't interfere with the layout of the final illustrations.  Show below is a one colour concept featuring a bottle neck strap. This colour choice was effective but I think the design lacked depth. The bottle neck idea also had good potential but I thought the design was effective enough and the design on the bottle neck would ruin the effect. I also thought the bottle neck design wasn't as well refined and didn't look as appealing on the eye.
