I was good with typography, but I wasn’t great. Since design is part type, part image, I figured it’s about time I master the type part. In the Fall of 2019, I decided to enroll in Type West, a postgraduate certificate program in type design at Letterform Archive.

Halfway through this program, we switched from in-person classes to on-Zoom meetings. Despite the rough transition, I’m so grateful for having learned from incredible masters and leveled up my design game thanks to the amazing Archive community. You can view the full project on my portfolio, or read up on the process on The Design Loupe.

Here’s a quick video I made for my virtual graduation ceremony. If you’re curious about my classmate’s awesome typefaces, check out the graduation recording.
