Week 3- Awful Typography





I found this poster on a typography website. Although this poster seems to be creative it is not very easy to read. The creator seemed to play on the word breaks and broke each letter. Still, I think that this would never work in paragraph form. The letters are all in caps and have to be too close together in order to make sense. The "k" s right next to the "a" so that people can read it as a k. The same is true for the "r" and "b". I think this just shows that some typography can only be used as display type and for creative purposes.
