I did a study across 10 Swiss design posters and found a (relatively) consistent formula for sizing type. Let's recreate this David Bowie poster and analyze the sizes!
Great question! I can see how that was confusing if you haven't seen my Swiss Grid Tutorial here: ua-cam.com/video/dOMcrGjWWwg/v-deo.html Once you get it set up, you can just copy and paste it onto your document 😎
The font is most likely Akzidenz Grotesk, the 1950s Swiss designers' favourite
Elite, simply elite.

Hi Design Smith! I am on windows, and I was wondering where you are able to get the Helvetica font. I can't find it from the Adobe Font library
Try it from here: font.download/font/helvetica-255
I wish Helvetica came standard on all machines.
Muchas gracias por tu excelente explicación. 😊¡Tienes nueva seguidora!
You're welcome! Glad I could help 🙂
laughed do loud there, great video
Glad you enjoyed!
I really liked the mathematical formula 😅❤
You don't have to use it 100% of the time, but it definitely comes in handy!
Thanks man
Glad it helped, thank you for watching!
