How Culture Affects Typography
How Culture Affects Typography

Join designer, blogger, and typofile, Nikki Villagomez, for a look
into how culture affects the decision processes of every day life. For
those who mix words with images, this is as crucial to the message we
convey as it is fascinating to an observer of those processes. In her
presentation, Villagomez will use pictures she has taken throughout her
travels and talk about the comparisons (and contrasts) in type choices
based on location.

We encourage local designers in the Upstate New York community to really
look at the typography throughout your city and take pictures that you
feel represents the cities of Upstate New York. Pictures need to be
submitted by Friday, April 5.
 These pictures will be used as a
crucial part of the presentation.
