Typography is mainly everywhere in this day and age. Not many people notice it but itās everywhere. In my neighborhood Far Rockaway, thereās not many typography thatās located in that area unfortunately. Apart from stores, supermarkets, hospitals and schools there isnāt much type associated with where I live. When you look around itās hard to find a place that has a unique kind of type that stands out from the rest. It seems as if everything thatās written in my neighborhood uses the same font, a lucky guess would be Helvetica. Mainly is an easy to read font and itās used everywhere. The only place that might have a different kind of font is probably the salons/barbershops. Those place try and play around with typography a bit just to show a different type of feel to it. They also can do that because they already of symbols or images that portray what they are.Ā You wonāt find a lot of type based design in my neighborhood. The most type based design you would find is graffiti and thereās barely any. I havenāt seen any type in my neighborhood where it stood and thatās memorable. Everything is mostly the same and is somewhat boring. Itās fun to see typography and different type treatments with words on buildings and even build boards, too bad you wonāt find that in Far Rockaway. I try looking for symbols, signs or images in type on a lot of different places but could hardly find any. The closet Iāve come to finding image in type is the Key Food Supermarket logo and it just has a key in the name. Not really much of a typography design but thatās the only thing I can say that stands out from the rest. Hopefully in the future there will be more type treatment that goes into making my neighborhood a little more fun when it comes to typography.
