Sans serif typefaces, geometric shapes, limited color pallets,<br />
and a variety of overlapping elements that push the boundaries<br />
of the page; these are the design elements I often use and<br />
they’re what I’m comfortable with. I’ve decided to create a<br />
type specimen that contradicts that. The typeface I’ve chosen to<br />
do my research over is “<strong>Mrs</strong> <strong>Eaves</strong>”, a font inspired by John<br />
Baskerville’s popular and historically significant typeface<br />
“Baskerville” and that is completely different from what I<br />
typically use in my designs. I discovered <strong>Mrs</strong> <strong>Eaves</strong> through<br />
the interest I have in the sans serif typeface Mr <strong>Eaves</strong> that<br />
was also designed by Zuzana Licko. I decided to create a type<br />
specimen where I will combine all of the elements I enjoy<br />
using with a serif typeface. This type specimen will include<br />
in depth information about the <strong>Mrs</strong> <strong>Eaves</strong> typeface, the<br />
history of the typeface and its creator, information about<br />
typography, and designs inspired by quotes found in Émigré<br />
Magazine that was also created by Zuzana Licko.
