About Typography & Lettering Art

Spacing, weight, rhythm and the relationship between text and image influence how a design is read. A historical page or poster may combine a practical message with a strong decorative identity. Hand lettering, calligraphy and typography are related practices with different methods.

The wording and source matter as much as the visual form. Explore the original context of a reproduced design rather than treating historical text as a new statement by Old Town Magick.
