I really like how this poster is layed out - the layers, the repetitive elements, the type following the curve of a letter form. The poster seems to have all of the graphic design elements: unity, emphasis, balance, rhythm, and depth. The designer's site does a great job of exlaining font speciment sheets and has many interesting and informative links.

These will help to inspire me on my own font poster. I was amazed at the variety!

North Mattis & I-74

I thought this was clever with a shrimp used as a G. It made me look so I guess it worked. I didn't have much luck identifying the font. The E wouldn't match any of the fonts suggested by online sources. It reminds me of the titling fonts mentioned in our textbook. It's definitely a serif and used as display text to advertise.

The letter "m"

Iteineraria, BCPT Associati, poster

I found this poster interesting because of the play between the letter "m" and the negative space created by the fork. The letter "m" is the focal point but the interaction with the fork immediately draws your eye up and over to the red lettering explaining the event. The information block further grabs your attention because it is unexpectedly printed sideways. Great use of font to employ visual interest!
The font is Bodini, a serif style.
