erik spiekermann banner

Here is the inside of the banner. I still am working on the cover of it. The banner will open like a window with the two flaps opening from the middle.

Seiji,

It is a very good beginning.
I like the blueprint idea. I wish you develop it further with the text grid, guides and all sorts of technical elements that accompany typographical layout, even the text could be broken into bits of highly organized information.

Just wanted to let you know that Meta typeface in on the Teachers server—Folder "Olga"—"Fonts for Flyer"—Sans Serif fonts.

A few technical comments:

Be careful with capitalizing. His initial letters should be capitalized or both "lowercased".

Pay attention to the kerning around letter "o" in Information.

If you were to read his quote aloud, you probably, would break it differently:

In order to design
for understanding,
we need to understand
design.

or

In order to design
for understanding,
we need
to understand
design.

These are tiny comments and suggestions , but the tone and the rhythm is right. Keep going.
