In this assignment, the task is to design the typography for a magazine or news article using Penpot.

Here’s what I did. You can watch the video of me designing the typography in the walkthrough video below.

Here’s what I came up with for this assignment.

I found this assignment harder to complete than the Dashboard assignment, because even though you have more creative freedom with this one, I feel that the theme or category of the article should be a factor on the typography choices.

Fabulous. @jsabedrabbo did you come up with a theme or category to help you make your typographic choices?

I agree that it’s much easier to do design work when you have real (or fake real!) content to design to. Can’t wait to see what you do with this design in colour! 😉

Not a particular theme, the idea for the article would be to highlight new innovations around the world, but still I feel the typography could go in different directions if the magazine/article is focused more on tech innovations, environmental, design, etc.
