canva font pairing guide: Lincoln and Kennedy Gene Barretta, 2016-06-14 President Abraham Lincoln grew up in a one-room log cabin. President John F. Kennedy was raised in the lap of luxury. One was a Republican and one a Democrat. They lived and served a hundred years apart. Yet they had a number of things in common. Some were coincidental: having seven letters in their last names. Some were monumental: Lincoln's support for the abolitionist movement and Kennedy's support for the civil rights movement. They both lost a son while in office. And, of course, both were assassinated. In this illuminating book, Gene Barretta offers an insightful portrait of two of our country's most famous presidents. |

canva font pairing guide: I Love Gill Sans TwoPoints.Net, Viction Workshop, 2012 Gill Sans, a sans-serif typeface widely used today, was designed by Eric Gill in 1926; the first public usage of the typeface was that same year, when Gill used it on signage for a new bookshop opening in his hometown of Bristol. Gill Sans gained popularity in 1929 when it was chosen by Cecil Dandridge to be used on all posters and publicity materials of the London and North Eastern Railway systems. The iconic and highly legible lettering can still be seen on everything from locomotive nameplates and station signage to restaurant car menus and printed timetables. In 1935, Penguin Books began to use the typeface for all of its jacket designs and in recent years, Gill Sans has been adopted formally for a wide variety of purposes from the Church of Englands publications to Saab Automobiles sleek usage in all of its marketing materials. The BBC officially adopted the typeface in 1997, and the British Government itself followed suit in 2003. I Love Type 05 Gill Sans explores the multitude of unexpected ways this popular typeface has been used, subverted, and reinvented by a host of clever and inspired designers in recent years. |

canva font pairing guide: Rules of Play Katie Salen Tekinbas, Eric Zimmerman, 2003-09-25 An impassioned look at games and game design that offers the most ambitious framework for understanding them to date. As pop culture, games are as important as film or television—but game design has yet to develop a theoretical framework or critical vocabulary. In Rules of Play Katie Salen and Eric Zimmerman present a much-needed primer for this emerging field. They offer a unified model for looking at all kinds of games, from board games and sports to computer and video games. As active participants in game culture, the authors have written Rules of Play as a catalyst for innovation, filled with new concepts, strategies, and methodologies for creating and understanding games. Building an aesthetics of interactive systems, Salen and Zimmerman define core concepts like play, design, and interactivity. They look at games through a series of eighteen game design schemas, or conceptual frameworks, including games as systems of emergence and information, as contexts for social play, as a storytelling medium, and as sites of cultural resistance. Written for game scholars, game developers, and interactive designers, Rules of Play is a textbook, reference book, and theoretical guide. It is the first comprehensive attempt to establish a solid theoretical framework for the emerging discipline of game design. |
