My Detailed Design Process for the Adobe Fonts Project
The past few weeks I’ve been asked to create a fictional app design in Adobe XD using a set of Adobe fonts of my choice as a way to promote Adobe Fonts. This needed a bit of reverse thinking really as I had to pick my set of fonts first before starting thinking about the design. The process is usually the other way around, I choose my fonts based on the project.
Brainstorming
So while choosing the fonts I was brainstorming on the subject of my design project. While browsing my huge Designcuts collection of mockup templates, I bumped into these lovely pots and jars mockups from Mockup Zone which immediately triggered the idea to create an app about herbs & spices.
My Fonts Pack
I decided to go with the power combo of slab serif Yrsa with Basic Sans Bold in an all-caps arrangement that highlights the stylistic contrast between the two. I figured this would look perfect to use as headings in the app. Continuo is the mesmerizing display typeface I chose to use for the logo. Bree was also added in the mix for its compatible nature with the other fonts in the pack. I envisioned this would look beautiful for the packaging design.
