The Design

About Tracing Упакоўчная тыпаграфіка

Tracing — унікальная тыпаграфіка, распрацаваная спецыяльна для ўпакоўкі кальку. Яна выходзіць за межы функцыянальнасці, становячыся сродкам для ўяўлення і самавыражэння. Увасабляючы мінімалізм, "Tracing" спалучае выразныя рысы з далікатнымі штрыхамі. Дызайн натхнёны рознымі шрыфтамі і дэманструе разнастайную таўшчыню штрыхоў. Пасля шматлікіх версій быў дасягнуты баланс паміж моцнасцю і далікатнасцю. Кожны элемент быў старанна апрацаваны, забяспечваючы цэласны выгляд. Tracing — гэта не проста шрыфт, ён натхняе на творчасць на паперы.
