I first created this blog to observe typography in the world when I was taking a Typography course in 2012. I will be using this blog again to track graphic design that catch my eye observations during my GSD 108 course at Parkland College.

ITC Korinna - Description
Korinna is a German serif typeface that was released by the H. Berthold AG type foundry in 1904 during the Art Nouveau period of bold and disproportional shapes and nature inspired forms. Ed Benguiat and Vic Caruso brought this font back to life for the International Typeface Corporation (ITC) in 1974.This font was named after an ancient Greek female poet, Corinna, whose eloquently spoken words and beauty made her a muse to other ancient authors. This typeface has a playful and whimsical nature, and is widely used in advertisements, novel covers.
