CONNOTATIVE IDEAS Review your research and consider the connotations of your typeface. What feelings, mood, time period, and ideas does it conjure up? If your typeface were a person, what kind of personality would it have? Jot down some of these ideas as a few sentences in the space below. When I think of 'avenir', I see a concept of the future as foreseen in 1920s constructivist design. I think of cool, monochrome colours and clean, straight lines along with simple geometric forms. Space and space travel also come to mind along with a sense of dynamism, energy and movement. 'Avenir's' personality would be cool, but piercing.
