Typeface Research

As the native language spoke in Krakow is Polish I decided to do some research into the Polish language and commonly used typefaces that compliment the language.



I looked at the Polish alphabet to see how it looks in comparison to the English alphabet, it is pretty easy to follow despite having multiple variations for certain letters such as A and C. I want to some how incorporate the Polish language into my design.

I decided to look at common typefaces used in Polish graphic design work, as it is a different language certain typefaces work better than others. A popular combination I came across was 'Lelum Sans' which is a sans serif typeface and 'Clavo' which is a serif typeface. I liked the traditional look of 'Clavo' as Krakow is a very historical place I think this would work nicely to bring in a historical/ traditional feel to my design.
