After the unsuccessful development for the holes idea involving rotating, I decided to give it another try. I went back to the basic layout I had created using Garamond and physically cut out holes once again. This time, however, I was precise in order to create a more subtle effect. I used the scanner to scan in different variations, including some more experimental, random layouts. It's a shame because I personally prefer this abstract style, but it sacrifices legibility for style. Taking them further digitally, I tried to incorporate image but I struggle with legibility even more here. I think that my notebook idea response in comparison is a much better blend of type and image and works better together. Here, the texture is fighting against the type in an unpleasant way.
