REFLECTIONS
Experience 
As the module, Advanced Typography comes to its final stage in week 14, I reflect on the journey of completing this course and have experienced a range of emotions. I felt confused and exhausted at the beginning of each assignment. Each assignment presented its own challenges that needed to be overcome. However, I also felt a sense of satisfaction every time an assignment reached its final stage. I am particularly satisfied with developing two fonts in this module, even though they may not be fully completed as some special characters were not developed.

Observation
Studying advanced typography has provided me with deeper insights compared to basic typography. I've noticed that I now spend time observing existing posters or designs to understand the way they present their fonts and designs. It has become clear to me that there are still many principles and rules that need to be understood to create and apply my creativity effectively.

Findings
After completing the 14-week study of typography, I've gained a deeper understanding of the subject. However, I realize that I am not yet a master, and there is still a need for further study and research. Typography holds significant importance in our daily lives, as it is prevalent in various aspects. Recognizing the rules of typography allows us to design in a consistent manner, contributing to effective and visually pleasing communication.
