Meta Font Research Project

For this project I researched the Meta font family. I then created a poster to exemplify the feeling and purpose of the font. Meta was created in the 90's as the antithesis to Helvetica. I say, thank goodness! I'm SO SO SO sick of Helvetica so I decided to celebrate the extinguishment of Helvetica in my poster by using letters in Meta font to create a man putting out a cigarette that says "helvetica" on it.

The poster shows the wide range within Meta's font family and details the history of its creation. I think this poster does Meta's creator, Erik Spiekermann, proud.
