Task 3: Type Exploration & Application
Chemole is a name formed from the combination of the
words "Chemistry" and "Molecules". The typeface was
created as an experimental exploration of the concept of
molecular structures forming the structure of
letterforms. Inspired by 3D models of molecules, Chemole
explores translating molecular models into unique
letterforms.

REFLECTIONS
Experience
Throughout this module, I have learnt many things about typography, from ways to apply text information into different systems to designing a font/typeface. There were definitely many challenges faced along the way, especially at the beginning of each of the tasks, due to not knowing what to do. However, I managed to overcome them as I went, and I can say that I gave it my all for the tasks.

Observation
During this module, I found that at first I was quite indecisive on the choices for my final outcomes and did not have much confidence in my skills. As I progress along the tasks, I definitely feel like I am improving myself from these problems. Learning from the feedback also helped me improve my skills and my work, as it encouraged me to think critically about how to refine and strengthen my designs independently.

Findings
I found that typography is not just about
arranging text or selecting fonts, but also
about things like typefaces, hierarchy, and
composition that come together to effectively
communicate information. I also found that many
experimentations and revisions help with coming
up a good outcome. Overall, this module
strengthened my technical typography skills and
my confidence when designing.
