Olivia Valentine: Typographic Exploration

In first establishing a typeface for Olivia’s identity, I considered her request for a modern, simple aesthetic that was also strong and clean, but not sharp.

I explored a range of upper-case, sans-serif typefaces, specifically those with subtly softer edges and strokes, based on geometric form for a clean aesthetic. 


From the typefaces explored, Olivia favoured Omnes Regular. 

Designed by Joshua Darden of Darden Studio, a Brooklyn (NY) based type studio, the typeface is rounded, though is ‘neither overly mannered nor excessively literal in its approach.’ Out of the 6 typefaces identified, Omnes has a slightly heavier, bolder weight of line.
