Good Examples Week Eight
My good example this week was also found in my dad’s pantry, right behind my good example. I believe this product caught my eye because of how bold and outlined the text was. The word that read “Mrs. Butter-worth’s” are in a bubbly font with some select letters that haves serifs. These words are in a white color with a light yellow shading that is outlined by a bold black against a red background. The stroke of each of these colors go together nicely, there is not too much or too little of these colors, and the colors are repeated throughout the rest of the sticker. Although the text is slanted at an angle like my bad example, this product does it in a way that makes it feel right. I believe it looks more correct because although the words look at an angle, the letters are still upright. They also stagger and fit together like a puzzle piece. Where as in my bad example the letters lean at a weird angle. The same font in different weights is used throughout this sticker, excluding the word “syrup” and the information of the contents at the bottom, which are strategically placed on a clear background out of white text and black border, so that you can see it with either the syrup or nothing behind it. Overall this example of typography is not too simple but not too clustered to be distracting. There is a sense of hierarchy and an understanding of color schemes and typefaces.
