I produced a decorative typeface that would work with ‘Jenson’, this is a typeface originally made by Nicholas

Jenson but remastered by Robert Slimbach at Adobe. I designed  the upper and lower case letters all with a

decorative jewel and background and then designed the book itself for the presentation of the final letters. I

then produced a letterpress plate of the words Jenson Decorative and this also sat in the box. Then to show

the typeface working I designed a newspaper front page of The Times using Jenson Decorative where appropriate.

I also produced another poster illustrating the designed typeface.
