Marian Bantjas
Something that i have always been interested in is
typography. Considering the modern digital world we live in handwritten
typographers intrigued me most. How did they come up with this type face? What inspired
them to choose that style, shape, size, boldness, etc.... the list goes on. When
researching typographers i came across is Marian Bantjes. Marian does not use
huge amounts of texts to create her type such as the type i am using to write
up this blog now. Instead she uses a small amount of text but gives a bold and
free appeal. Bantjes style is more for specific design categories such as which
is focusing on a specific topic. When i look at some of her work i think it
would be suitable to use in titlles for things such as sport, music, clothing. It
has quite an urban freestyle feel too it. When i say music i mean hip hop,
garage, rap not classical or choir music. And by clothing, tracksuits and
sports wear not a party dress or tux. Below i have included some pictures of
the type she has produced and maybe then you can see why it would be too
appealing to use in bulk. On e work in her type is more than enough.
