Typology Book & Mason Type Specimen

Typology Book & Mason Type Specimen
An editorial book documenting the Vox classification of typefaces.

Typology is a guide to typefaces, specifically organised via the Vox system. Typology breaks down the various styles of typefaces within the Vox 1, 2 and 3 groupings. 

Vox 1 is the standard text typefaces,
Vox 2 is the display typefaces, 
Vox 3 is the Pi fonts.

All the content for this publication was provided. The focus of this assignment was on utilising heirachy and typographic craft to communicate a large body of information. The book was also hand-bound by myself. 
The process behind this work involved a vast amount of iteration and refinement. Concept was established early in order to allow plenty of time for the necessary craft that such an editorial project required. 
Accompanying the publication is a type specimen for Jonathan Barnbrook's Mason typefaces. This is realised as a A1 poster in a style that pays homage to Barnbrook's own designs.
