Rules of typography I used
double point size-text elements are in smaller sized font while larger elements/single letters/names and years appear in significantly larger point size. some individual elements and symbols are very over sized, creating contrast. align to one axis- the primary axis I built my project on was a 60° and 330° (which is 60° rotated) angle. All other text is parallel or perpendicular to this primary axis. how could I improve my design? Which one do you like best?

I'm going to do my poster on Bauhaus because I find that the bubbly and modern look of Bauhaus appealing.
the German school Bauhaus looked to modernize, unify and standardize design into an idealistic form that combines function with aesthetic. Herbert Bayer made the Universal typeface and the Bauhaus aesthetic overall. The common elements of the Bauhaus typeface is geometric, sans serif letterforms. the original Universal typeface only had lowercase letters. Herbert Bayer made posters for the Hitler youth not yet realizing what was going on, latter fleeing Germany for the United States. |
