How many typefaces were used?
Three typefaces were used in this label.
How do the typefaces relate to each other?
The typefaces are sans-serif, with little tracking to save space.
How did the designer use space and alignment to organise the text?
From top to bottom, the designer used a shuffled right alignment for the name "Glass Cleaner" and then a central alignment for the brief description. These are spaced out well to draw attention as they are the main focus of the label. At the bottom, the designer used a shuffled left alignment with some spacing between paragraphs to make the bulk of the texts easy to read.
What were the treatments used to differentiate text and organise information — size, scale, treatment (colour, effects)?
The designer made used of bold text for titles and capital texts to highlight important information.
What are the other elements on the label (logos, images, graphics, rules, background colours)
The other elements on the label include the "Strike" brand logo and a couple images to compliment the usage description of the product. There is also a recyclable logo on the bottom right to inform users that the bottle can be recycled. The background colour is a dark blue which provides a good contrast to the majority white text.
What is your opinion about the quality of the label? Does it work? Is it aesthetically pleasing? Is it effective? Why do you think that is?
I think that the label is of a good quality as it serves the purpose well. It is easy to read and draws attention to the main features of the product when a potential buyer looks at the label. To me, it may not be aesthetically pleasing but the blue colour does match the colour of the liquid inside the bottle, which gives it a coherent theme.
How does the use of type and its organisation on the label influence the aesthetic quality and efficiency of this label?
The type and its organisation makes it readable and legible for the reader. The alignment of the text is neat and makes the label efficient at communicating messages across.
