Existing in the context of the 2008 financial and subsequent political crisis, both this thesis and my work are situated in an expanded field of graphic design. This research examines the emergence of the terms critical design and critical practice, and aims to develop methods that use criticism during the design process from a practitioner’s perspective. Central aims of this research are to address a gap in design discourse in relation to this terminology and impact designers operating under the banner of such terms, as well as challenging practitioners to develop a more critical design practice. The central argument of this thesis is that in order to develop a critical practice, a designer must approach design as criticism.

Typography and advertising both have been researched significantly all over the world but mainly as a two separate disciplines without showing the importance of their connection. The aim of my thesis is to fill that gap and show the significance of typography in advertising and their relationship in the communication process. The approach undertaken in this thesis is mainly theoretical, including statistics, a survey, a case study and an analysis of literature from various sources in the field of the research. I have analysed the factors that make typography suitable and effective for advertising purposes. With this research I am able to confirm that the use of typography and type for advertising purposes is slightly different than its use for other purposes. I am hoping that my work will make designers and advertisers more aware of the importance of typography in the creation of advertisements and that they will make better use of it.

    Inflection Point Emigre Published in 1989, Emigre magazine’s eleventh issue, Ambition/Fear: Graphic Designers and the Macintosh Computer, contains vivid artifacts of a discipline’s first encounter with digital tools. From the aesthetics of bitmaps to the expressive interventions made possible by new access to typesetting controls, not to mention the self- publishing venture of the magazine itself, this issue combines modernist and postmodern agendas in a model construction of text-based community. Looking closely at Emigre #11, and more passingly at later issues, this article analyses the technical, critical, and cultural production that would shape Emigre as a medium for typographic demonstration and discussion among peers.

  • The Visibility and Legibility of Roman Typefaces: a Review with Blur Simulation

    The Visibility and Legibility of Roman Typefaces: a Review with Blur Simulation

    The Visibility and Legibility of Roman Typefaces: A Review with Blur Simulation * Rachapoom Punsongserm Faculty of Fine and Applied Arts, Thammasat University, Pathum Thani, Thailand Abstract Background According to our previous study, Thai Typefaces (Part 1): Assumption on Visibility and Legibility Problems, we examined underlying stages in the visibility and legibility matters of the Thai typefaces where the results have provided the assumption for developing the glyphs of the Thai universal design font (UD font). However, studying the visibility and legibility of Roman letters has still been a necessity, as it represents the international language. Developing high visibility and high legibility of the Roman typeface is requisite for supporting the Thai UD font as well. Methods The current study qualitatively initial tested the tolerance of Roman characters under blurred conditions. We applied seventy Roman fonts in the form of 'The Internal Relationship of Letters in the Feature Comparison Theory' in the same x-heights as stimuli, which simulated the low visual acuity at different blur levels. Results The simulated condition suggests significant advantages and disadvantages of each Roman type concerning visibility and legibility. The results improved ideas and possible solutions, which may assist with the approach of designing high-performance Roman letterforms that contribute to the Thai UD font as a Roman character set. Conclusions In order to improve the visibility and legibility of the Roman letterforms toward a UD font, the current pilot study conducted an investigation via blurred Roman types. The study revealed the advantages and disadvantages of several Roman letterforms, which suggest approaches to developing the Roman characters actively in low visual acuity conditions.
