Initial Ideas

  My first idea is using Clarendon as I think Clarendon is notable for its strong horizontal connecting lines which contrast very little with the main stroke. So I traced the Clarendon typeface and tried to draw again to a paper and see which part I can change it.


  At the beginning, I drew the Clarendon typeface just the outline because I wanted to see how it looks like and so that I could think which part I can do kerning easily.
  My second idea is using Univers, it became the most used sans serif face. I traced it and drew a simple idea by using Univers. However, I prefer Clarendon more than Univers as I think Univers doesn't match with my adjective because the typeface of Univers looks too straight and quite boring.
Compare with Univers, I think Clarendon make me feel more interesting, it has strong bracketed serifs which I really like that.


  I made some really simple ideas by using Clarendon and Univers with upper case or lower case. I think those with Univers can be just use at formal way for example "School Lucky Draw". However, I think for Clarendon, it can be apply in different way including some gambling place(casino). So I will focus more in Clarendon.
