Dear all,

I'm a Communication Design student at the University of Portsmouth. Being in the last year of the BA program, I have elected "City Typography" to be the subject of my final major project.

I plan to create a magazine featuring the typography of a specific city in every issue. The first issue should be about typography in London and - of course - the people behind.
In this context, one article should be about the personal impressions of city typography of designers and typographers in London. (It's really just one article of the hole magazine and I've done much other articles already. Just in case, you don't think that I want you to do my work!)

This topic is the reason for my mail.
If you like my idea and want to help me to get through it, please read the following task:

Create a visual, which displays your own notion of� �The City Typography of London�.

It could be a picture, a few sentences, a drafted font or whatever you can imagine which reflects your own impression of London�s typography in the best way.

Please send me your input including your name/agency and preferably your reason for creating your work the way you did.

I would be very grateful if you could help me with this matter.

Best regards,

Inga Lange

> I am also a student in my final year, studying graphic design @ bucks uni. I have graduated from kingston already and am very interested in typographhy. I started a thread on dyslexia and typography, wondered if you knew anything on the subject? I am willing to help you with your project, sounds interesting, would be a good side project for me right now... Where would you like me to send stuff to you?
