The Great Gatsby design is a main influence for my font. It was created by Two members of Like Minded Studio, Baz Lurhmann and Catherine Martin. They created the design to reflect the 1920’s and the glamour of the film. They used different sized lines in an order to create a letter. I liked the simplicity of this design and so I’ve taken inspiration from their design and put it into my font. You can see the stages of the design coming together in the three images below. The one with the white background being the first draft and the one with the gold being the finial result. I think the use of lines works really well as the art movement, art deco is all about clean lines and structure. I think i will try this effect when designing my font.
