These were two exercises I did for my Typography 3 class. This was an in-class assignment in which each student was being limited in their design choices in laying out the lines of a certain poem. We were given coins and were instructed to flip them. A heads or tails denoted what weight of font we used, the size and leading and the placement of the type on the page. Part of the point of the assignment was to embrace serendipitous moments in design and to understand what is readable as type overlaps and such. Just a short exercise, but plenty to consider as a designer.
