The bad type
During her MA studies at the Royal College of Art in London, Minna Sakaria researched hyperbole taste judgements in typography – something that caused a counter reaction and nurtured a playful approach in her design work. Minna shares experiences of how “bad typography” can serve as sanctuary space for learning and growing as a designer, and her hands-on tricks for employing a playful approach to the sometimes austere practice of typography.
