feedback
Pay attention to the consistency of stroke thickness to ensure the consistency of characters.
Strokes should be bold.


Reflex action
Experience: a good opportunity to learn how to create and design fonts.
I need to pay attention to more details when completing this task.




FURTHER READING


The exploration of the meaning of anything that must be designed is called semantics.
When we start a new design, graphic, product, exhibition or interior design project in any form, the first thing we have to do is to find out its meaning. Better understand the scope of the project and select the best action plan for the new design.
Different projects can be carried out in different directions. You can search for more information about companies, products, topic markets, and even the true meaning of topics
