GDS172 Typography II - Post 2

Ingredient list from boxycharm.com subscription box 1-2018

This is an ingredient list (the list is on the back) for a product from a subscription box sent out in January 2018. The contents inside were a party makeup colors for the New Yer's Day. The design is a simple and informal, used for advertising and product appeal.

I like the marquee lights on the type because it has a sense of celebration about it, which is what the theme is about. The emphasis is definitely on the design theme of the month being "Rock 2018." I thought this was an interesting use of typography because it is rough looking, repeating what is going on in the background. This is not a font from the Parkland approved font list because we do not have any sans serif fonts that have letters that are "squished in," in particular the letter "o."  The number one looks like Helvetica.
