Recently, we needed to make a presentation to a large group- multiple divisions of a corporation. For the most part, everyone was receptive and supportive, except one woman who looked disturbingly like the Little House on the Prairie school marm. We said we wanted one of the pieces to be sexy-we were referring to type issues-and she became visibly upset. She was honestly offended by this. I told our contact that I wasn’t looking for hard-core porn-I wanted the type to be visceral and beautiful, not clinical. I learned my lesson; typography and sexiness don’t go together for most civilians.

Noreen [Morioka] and I went back and forth about what should be on the STEP cover that would drag you across the room if you saw it on the newsstand. I have to give credit here to our art director, Volker Dürre: His input led us to this solution. We just fi nished the redesign of Health and we have all of our studies for their cover. We went to newsstands and took pictures, and then in Photoshop we placed the Health cover in different places on the shelf-in front, in back, to the left, to the right. It really helped us determine what elements go where to call attention to the cover.

For STEP, we began with another version-a full-fl edged specimen sheet that called out the erogenous zones, emotional zones, and intellectual zones [above, left]. It ended up being much too complex to work on the cover. A cover has to be like a poster. So we went back and thought, “How do we make this feel like a great poster? A giant letterform will be perfect! It will draw people in from across the room to take a closer look” [above, right].

The S is set in Firmin Didot - it’s 18th century French. Lou Dorfsman redrew it for the CBS building signage, resulting in the most beautiful elevator panels on the

planet. It’s such a beautiful font-it has crispy edges, and is so refi ned.

And maybe because it’s French it makes it just that much sexier.

Typefaces are one of the mainstays of a graphic designer’s “diet,” so to speak. They are not only used to communicate the written word, but to help set a mood, tone, and personality. Considering its importance to the process of design, have you ever stopped to think how a typeface comes to be? How does it evolve from a “twinkle in a type designer’s eye” to a full-blown typeface?

Although the actual process of designing a typeface varies from designer to designer, we spoke with type designer James Montalbano of Terminal Design about two of his typographic creations, Giacomo and Alfon, to get some insight into his world of typeface design.

GiacomoGiacomo is the forerunner of this dynamic pair. A robust, six-weight family with corresponding italics, Giacomo is an extremely readable sans serif design with a lot of warmth, liveliness, and personality. The weights range from a crisp, inviting light to a chunky, assertive black.

The seed for Giacomo evolved out of an earlier effort to draw a sans with humanist overtones, which Montalbano had never completed. When he returned to it years later, he had an idea where he wanted to go with it, but he allowed his vision to remain fl exible and malleable. “You begin by drawing a shape on screen, then an outline, and then it becomes like plastic, like sculpture ... you move points and curves around until you fi nd what you’re looking for. It’s the kind of a process where you think you’re

starting with one thing and it turns out to be something different.

It takes on a life of its own,” he explains.

Montalbano works by starting with a medium or book weight to work out the basic structure of the design. He then goes on to create both heavier and lighter weights, playing around with all possibilities in between, often moving away entirely from the weighthe started with.

“When I move from the medium to the light or heavy weight, issues usually come up relating to fi t and shapes that can wind up changing the entire design,” he notes. “Experience teaches you to let the design speak to you and tell you what it needs to be. It needs to be able to breathe and grow on its own.”

Montalbano designed Giacomo without any square corners; they are all chamfered, which contributes to the warmth and liveliness of the design, especially as it gets larger. Although Giacomo is primarily a text face, Montalbano added nuances and details that emerge only at larger sizes, allowing the design to have a distinct personality when set for display. “I designed Giacomo to work across a broad range of sizes-as it gets bigger, details emerge that are invisible at text sizes. At large sizes, this design is all about funny quirks and shaved off corners, which make all the difference,” he says.

The entire Giacomo family was drawn over a period of two years, interwoven with Montalbano’s custom type work, which is the mainstay of his type design business and occupies roughly three quarters of his time. Work on his personal designs must take second place to his custom work, so he has learned over time to hone his skills to accommodate it all.

AlfonAfter the completion of the entire Giacomo family, Montalbano was playing around and adding serifs to one of the weights, and he liked the way it looked. “I like the proportions and features of Giacomo, and I thought it would be fun to create a serif typeface that had those components.” Alfon was not designed to necessarily be used with Giacomo or be considered as part of a super family, thus the change of name. Alfon is a complementary design that shares its structure and proportions with Giacomo, and although it is harmonious with its predecessor,it is a different design.

It has four weights with corresponding italics. Why not six like Giacomo? According to the designer, not only is it more diffi cult to make extreme weights for a serif design, but they are not that beautiful or even useful. “You’re really making a tool for people, and you want to make the tool as functional as possible across as broad arange as is useful.”

Type destinyIf Montalbano has a design philosophy for his personal work, it is that one must design for oneself. “I have no idea if anyone will like what I design or what they will respond to. You can’t really design with that in mind because you never know what people will like,”he says.

James remembers getting in trouble in fi rst grade “because I drew a hooded two-story ‘a’ or I put a little serif on a letter. I remember my teacher saying ‘What’s that? You weren’t taught to print that way.’ Then I’d point to the textbook, which was probably set in Century Schoolbook, and say ‘Well, it’s in the book!’” It seems to have been Montalbano’s destiny to bea type designer.

A new franklinDavid Berlow of The Font Bureau had typographic legibility at the forefront of his mind when he began the redesign of Franklin Gothic for International Typeface Corporation. In addition to their popular “retail” fonts, the Font Bureau has a successful business designing, manufacturing, and providing specialized typefaces to newspapers and periodicals. While the company has a suite of typefaces they rely on as the design foundation for these projects, they wanted to add a Franklin Gothic series to their offering. They could have started from scratch, but Berlow fi gured, “Why start from a blank screen, when you can build on an established foundation?” ITC was approached for two reasons: they had one of the best examples of Franklin Gothic in their library, and Berlow had previously worked with ITC on the development of the Franklin Gothic Condensed series.

While ITC’s original Franklin Gothic was released as two designs, one for display setting and one for text, early digital interpretations were developed as

“text/display” solutions. This is a nice idea that provides for the same fonts to be used from 6-point to billboard sizes (sort of like men’s socks: one size fi ts all). This can also be problematic: Compromises in a typeface design that allow it to perform within a wide range of sizes almost always limit its level of performance at any given size.

Font Bureau’s proposal was straightforward yet all encompassing: “Let us rework the ITC Franklin Gothic family; enlarge it into separate text and display designs, then let us sell it and use it for our custom design projects.”

No quick fi xA short time into the project, however, both parties learned that what was supposed to be a relatively simple reworking and respacing of the existing letters to perform well within a specifi c size range became a major design project. “Franklin is a face that’s so familiar and so straightforward that you would think that you almost can’t help but maintain its legibility in a sensitive interpretation,” says Berlow. “The reality, however, is much

more complicated. The devil is in getting every detail of contrast, angle, intersection, and overlap synchronized within each style, across the range of widths and weights, and between the roman and italic designs. In truth,a monumental task.”

Berlow dove deeply into the task of adding new weights and proportions to the family, taking advantage in the display range to make very light and very bold condensed faces that wouldn’t work below 20 to 24 point. The connection between the bowl and stem of lowercase characters was designed to have a crisper feel.

He also discovered that the ITC Franklin Gothics required a mountain of work to become the optimum text designs he and ITC wanted. The end result is, in fact, two text designs: one for use from about 8 point to 14 point, and another for use at very small sizes.

Design toolsThe original designs proved to be only part of the tools necessary to complete the project. “Even though I

had the original fonts and experience of the previous Franklin project,” says Berlow, “I still relied on a huge stack of Franklin Gothic specimens. These were always present when I worked on the design. You have to be something of a type hawk to fi nd them, but accurate type specimens provide the details that separate a simple reworking from a new interpretation.” The end result is over 70 fonts of text and display designs developed with legibility and usability as a primary goal. The designs are, in fact, so different from the original ITC Franklin Gothic that they have a new name-simply, ITC Franklin.www.fontbureau.com

A publisher’s viewTyndale House Publishers also had a need for a highly legible typeface family, but provided Brian Sooy, of Brian Sooy & Co., with a very different design brief. The publisher of the New Living Translation (NLT) of the Bible was about to print a new edition-but wanted to make some changes in the design and typography.

Two good viewsITC Franklin and Lucerna are about as different from each other as two designs can possibly be. Yet they both meet Ward’s criteria for legibility, and are designs with spirit and personality -the best of both worlds.

side, but thought that the type issues were relatively simple. “We wanted the type to achieve a better character count,” explains Tim Botts of Tyndale. “We wanted to maintain high levels of legibility and have a strong presenceon the page.”

Tyndale had used ITC Giovanni by Robert Slimbach for the previous edition, but the electronic modifi cations they imposed on the face to meet production criteria weakened its image. Tyndale fi rst approached Slimbach to redesign Giovanni but, when they learned that he would not be able to start on the project for three years, they turned to another type designer.

Brian Sooy & Co. specializes in graphic design and visual communications for higher education, technology, and the healthcare markets. Its principal, however, is also an accomplished typeface designer with over a dozen typefaces to his credit. “There’s something about letterforms that are totally captivating for me,” Sooy says. “It’s probably attributable to my exposure to a Speedball lettering book,

a box of Speedball nibs, and a bottle of ink at the impressionable age of 12.

“We started with the idea of working with the semibold weights of my typeface Veritas,” he recalls. “The plan was to modify this design to meet Tyndale’s needs.” Veritas was suffi ciently condensed to meet the project brief but the hairlines and serifs were not as pronounced as the publisher wanted. After considering an adaptation of Veritas, it was jointly decided that a completely new design would best serve Tyndale. The result was Lucerna, a typeface designed specifi callyfor the NLT Bible.

Design considerations“The aging population was also a factor in developing Lucerna,” says Sooy, “and the need for a heavier font to aid legibility.” The individual character widths and how the characters would fi t together in words in narrow columns (typical of many Bibles) were also taken into consideration. Because Lucerna would be set small in many instances, Sooy designed the lowercase around a large x height to ensure high levels of

legibility. In addition, the “horizontally” of the lowercase letters at the x-height was emphasized to aid the reader’s eyes travelling along that line. “Essentially I tried to distil the letterforms to their essence,” says Sooy, “and still give the design some distinctiveness.”

He found that the length of time the project took was the biggest hurdle to the design process. Sooy recommended-pleaded- to be given the opportunity to create the whole family at once, but Tyndale had not planned on using the font beyond what was in the fi rst edition of the NLT. Initially only a roman and italic were commissioned. Then, after some time they asked for a bold, then small caps were requested-and fi nally a bold italic. “Lucerna became the signature font for the NLT2,” Botts says. “We went back to Brian several times to complete the family-always under tight deadlines.”

“The project stretched over 18 months, with different portions of the family being completed at different times,” recalls Sooy. “It was a challenge to keep the original intent and visual concept

in mind when months had passed.” He says that the key to a consistent design was keeping good notes.www.briansooyco.com

from the dead and experience... SLEEP.WALKERS

WINNING THE GAMEOnce you’ve collected one symbol scoring tile in each category, make your way to “The Void” and try to answer the game-winning question. You must land in “The Void” by exact count; if you overshoot “The Void”, continue to nearest symbol; then, on your next move, try again to hit “The Void” by exact count.

When you do hit “The Void”, the other players select the category of the game-winning question from the next card in the box.

Answer the question correctly, place your final, pawn tile in the slate, and you win! Answer it incorrectly and you must wait for your next turn, leave “The Void”, answer a question and then re-enter “The Void” again - by exact count! - for another question.

NOTE: Since a player continues his or her turn until a question is answered incorrectly, it is possible for one player to move around the board and collect all six scoring tiles, then move into “The Void” and win the game - all on one turn. If this happens, any player who has not yet had a turn is permitted a chance to duplicate the feat and create a tie. for the game-winning, final question.

RULES OF PLAYFor 2 to 4 players or teams/ADULTS

OBJECTTo move along the circular track correctly answering questions, and

to collect parts of the mosaic puzzle to correctly answering questions in each of the seven category “headquarters” (signified by the brown

symbols). To win, a player (or team) returns to “The Void” hub and correctly answers the game-winning question in a category chosen

by the other players.

EQUIPMENTSLEEPWALKERS gameboar question and answer cards in box

six-sided di 28 mosaic tiles & 4 mosiac puzzle slates

SETUPSelect one token and seven mosaic tiles, one in each of the six category symbols. Roll the die; the high roller goes first. All players start in “The

Void” hub in the top left of the board and proceed around the circle. Play moves in either direction around the track,

clockwise or counterclockwise.

GAME PLAY

First turn:

On your first turn, roll the die and select which direction you want to go and either the inner or outer circle. Bear in mind, once you do one complete revolution, you must

proceed to the other parallel wheel and continue in the opposite direction

to the one you travelled on the other wheel.If you

land on a symbol, another player will ask you a question in that category: The other player draws the first card from the box and reads the question next to the appropriate symbol. Answers are upside down on the question side of the each card. When done with the question, place the card in the back of the box, behind the other cards. If you answer your first question correctly, continue your turn by rolling the die again and moving that number of spaces.

You can not move both forward and back on the track in the same move. You must move the number of spaces shown on the die. Any number of tokens may occupy the same space at the same time. If

you answer incorrectly, play passes to the player on your left.

MOVING THROUGH

“THE VOID”You can not land on

“The Void” until you have collected all six mosaic tiles. If you do however have

all six tiles in your slate, you may proceed to “The Void” and answer the

winning question (see right).

On each roll of the die, you may select which direction you want to move along the track as you attempt to move towards category symbols to try for scoring tiles in each of the six symbols.

Subsequent turns:

Whenever you answer a category headquarters question correctly,

put that mosaic tile into your slate. But if you answer incorrectly, on your

next turn you must move out of that category headquarters for a question

before re-entering and trying again for that tile piece. You do not have to try

that same category immediately; you may move elsewhere on the board and return

to it later.

There are 9 “Roll again” spaces on the track. If you land on one, continue

your turn by rolling the die and moving again.
