Love grids? Great. Hate them? Let me change your mind. Grids don’t have to be boring or rigid. In this workshop, you’ll unlock their expressive potential by constructing your own grid to use as both a tool and a design element in creating a set of custom letterforms. We’ll briefly cover the structure and conventions of the Latin alphabet, explore how modularity can bring visual harmony—even to eccentric styles—and craft a unique piece of lettering based on the grid you develop from scratch.
