To start developing my typeface, I needed to pick my initial typeface. From the research I chose 'Helvetica' to develop as I find that that this is the typeface that communicates Wills personality best.
Taking the original typeface, I started to create my first subtle manipulations.
This shows my initial thoughts on how I could manipulate this typeface to suit Wills personality. I have played around with accentuating the ascenders and altering the apex's. I also wanted to incorporate some serifs, even though this disagrees with certain aspects of my research considering the modernist type faces such as helvetica and futura are sans-serif. I intend to pursue this because the subtle serifs I have sketched in above represent an alternative modernist approach.
