  • Rozdział 4.Struktura Systemu Identyfikacji Wizualnej Firmy
    Artykuł pochodzi z publikacji: Produkcja przekazów multimedialnych, (Red.) M. Chrząścik, Wyższa Szkoła Promocji, Warszawa 2013 Rozdział 4. Struktura systemu identyfikacji wizualnej firmy Piotr Bajbak Wstęp Od dawna wiadomo, że jak widzi cię otoczenie, jak odbierany jesteś przez innych, tak będą o tobie mówić i pisać. W kontaktach biznesowych ten zewnętrzny wizerunek (identyfikacja wizualna) jest niesamowicie istotny, jeśli chcemy być konkurencyjni, wyróżnić sie na rynku czy zaskarbić sobie przychylność lub stałość klientów i partnerów biznesowych. Zachowanie spójności i jedności czasami sta- nowi duże wyzwanie, a kryteria opisywania są tak wielorakie jak ilość naszych odbiorców. Idealnym rozwiązaniem dla firm jest stworzenie systemu identyfikacji wizualnej. CI Corporate Identity (System Identyfikacji Wizualnej SIW) to zbiór (kodeks) porządkujący pracę firmy w sferze wizualnej. Kon- sekwentne stosowanie się do przedstawionych w nim zasad, norm, instrukcji i ustaleń powoduje w konsekwencji szybkie zbudowanie stabilnego i pozytywnie postrzeganego wizerunku firmy. Dziedzina kodeksu tworzącego SIW może być bardzo różnorodna i może dotyczyć wielu również konkretnych zagadnień w zależności od potrzeb firmy może on stanowić rozwiązanie nawet kilkudziesięciu problemów związanych z wizualnymi działaniami firmy. 104 105 Budowanie wizerunku i tożsamości firmy w takim ujęciu może powstawać wraz z jej rozwojem. Z Systemu Identyfikacji Wizualnej należy korzystać na co dzień i konsekwentnie wdrażać zawarte w nim wskazania i nie zmieniać umieszczonych w nim wzorów i projektów. Spójne bowiem wizual- ne komunikaty przedstawiane z żelazną i konsekwentną dyscypliną w ciągu szeregu lat wytworzą na rynku pozytywny obraz firmy i umoż- liwią szybką jej identyfikację. 4.1. Narzędzia i zastosowanie systemu wizualnego 4.1.1. Pojęcie i znaczenie systemu wizualnego System wizualny standaryzuje identyfikację wizualną firmy, bądź marki.

  • FSI: FF Meta Offc Condensed Normal
    fontfont opentype® ▪▪▪▪▪▪������ fontfont info guide for ff Meta Condensed Normal Offc | Offc Pro or Web | Web Pro Sections a | Font and Designer Information b | Language Support c | Type Specimens section a FONT & DESIGNER INFORMATION Handgloves about ff Meta Condensed Normal ff Meta was originally (1985) conceived as a typeface for use in small point sizes. Against its intended purpose, ff Meta very quickly became one of the most popular typefaces of the computer era, and has been referred to as the Helvetica of the 90s – not necessarily a compliment. It is used a lot in magazines, from the Normal weight in small point sizes for captions up to the Black version for large headlines. Hairline, Thin and Light were added in 2003. Once a publishing house commissioned a Black Condensed for the headlines of a new magazine. It unfortunately ceased publication after a few issues, but ff Meta Black Condensed survived. This version was the basis for the complete Condensed family, digitized by Ole Schäfer. Since headlines need to be bold before anything else, ff Meta Condensed has one additional weight compared with ff Meta: Extra Bold Condensed, which sits between Bold and Black. ff Meta Condensed contains all weights with Old Style as well as Lining Figures, there are fractions, ligatures, kerned lining figures and also the popular Meta arrows. The normal ff Meta already saves more than 12 % of space compared to a regular sans serif. ff Meta Condensed is another 12 % more condensed without being 24 % less readable. about Erik Spiekermann, born 1947, studied History of Art and English in Berlin.

    MiraCosta College / oceanside MAT 155 Graphic Design 2 : Typography Min Choi // Fall 2017 TRACING META INFO ABOUT META FF Meta is a humanist sans-serif typeface family designed by Erik Spiekermann and released in 1991 through his FontFont library. According to Spiekermann, FF Meta was intended to be a “complete antithesis of Helvetica”, which he found “boring and bland”. It originated from an unused commission for the Deutsche Bundespost (West German Post Office). Throughout the 1990s, FF Meta was embraced by the international design community with Spiekermann and E. M. Ginger writing that it had been dubiously praised as the Helvetica of the 1990s. FF Meta has been adopted by numerous corporations and other organizations as a corporate typeface, for signage or in their logo. These include Imperial College London, The Weather Channel, Free Tibet, Herman Miller, Zimmer Holdings, Mozilla Corporation, Mozilla Foundation, and Fort Wayne International Airport. Over the 25 years since its inception, the FF Meta family has been extended to include eight weights and two widths, as well as additional companion families, like FF Meta Headline, FF Meta Serif, and FF Meta Correspondence. The original FF Meta typeface has extended to a very flexible superfamily, as fresh as it was when it was born. In 2011, the Museum of Modern Art in New York added digital typefaces to its permanent collection for the very first time. Naturally, because of its significance to typography, FF Meta was one of the works included. FF Meta debuted at MoMA as part of the “Standard Deviations” installation in the contemporary design gallery.
