Restaurant menu BANANZA!!!!111!!11!!

For one of my last installations for my menu blogs I wanted to find one that I loved looking at. I would order the shit out of the food on this menu. I dont care if I like, or if it sounds good, this type is calling my name. There is great organization aside from some of the blank space that could have been utilized.  I truly love how the coors repeat themselves multiple times on this menu. It shows a strong amount of continuity. A- Royal Revolver.

MENU DESIGN NUMERO DOS!

This is the second installation in my menu design blog posts. Rather than sticking to the conformity of using multiple paged menus, I decided to go for the good ol single page spread. I actually prefer single page menus to multi page menus, its easier to look through and requires no frustrating page flipping. This one page menu utilizes a large amount of different design elements as well as different fonts. Some of the symbols could have been left out with no damage done to the design at all. Overall this was a great showing of how to utilize a small amount of space and fit in a large amount of information.

FRUIT ART EDITION!!!!1111!!11!???

If you thought typography was limited to paper then get out of the damn room! This person used cut fruit in order to spell the word "Juicy". The only problem I had with this is that it did take my eyes a minute to adjust and figure out exactly what it says.  Cool design but its a bit too crazy for my taste

 MENU DESIGN
Since we will be doing designs for a Japanese restaurant I figured I might as well look at some deigns that represent formal dining. I like this menu for the most part. I feel that it has a very strong force of organization and is able to separate the items very effectively. This separation is brought around by different colored text as well as a different font all together. Ironically the only things that are bothering me is the color selection. Velvet and gold make me feel like this menu is wearing a monocle and is about to blow smoke in my face from its theoretical cuban cigar. Other than the color selection I feel that this design worked very well.

Typography Blog Post 31


Typographic Blog Post 31

I chose to use this image because I felt this designer was able to put a large amount of detail and depth solely using text manipulation. By tilting and using different manipulation methods, this designer was able to pass off a very impressive image. While some of the text could have been changed this is a very impressive use of typograohy.
