Experience
Learning this subject, it made me understand many things that this whole time, text also can be design, from the headings design, font style, and composition of layout and texts. Makes me realize that design is in everything. 


Observations
What I realized from my observation in doing this project is that typography is a quite cool subject but yet also pain. No wonder, sometimes when I open pages and compare it, some pages just look boring and the others are so refreshing like it attracts our eyes naturally. I realize this was because of the composition in it like the white space, or negative space. Typography didn't really need complex design in layout to look good, sometimes what you need is just do a simple composition with a good understanding on how to play with the space around in order to look balance.

Findings
I found out that in typography, there are so many similar fonts, designs, and layout. But, even the smallest difference could change how they look and their aesthetic. Like even if the text is balance, it doesn't mean it's comfortable or easy to read. For example like our eyes naturally read texts from the left, so in order to make your design easy to be read, we need to consider the text placement which is starting from the left to right not from right to left. This is what makes the process long, because we need to keep playing with different technique and placement.
