Matchbox Label Techniques: Typography, Vintage Fonts & Text Arrangement

In this class, we’re continuing our time-traveling journey into the world of vintage design by observing matchbox label typefaces. We’ll learn about different font styles and how to replicate vintage text arrangements. I’ll share with you some of my favorite websites for inspiration or for finding open-source fonts that you can use and easily change and adjust for your design projects. And last but not least to make our designs look vintage and unique, we’ll replicate errors, misprints, and old paper textures.

This time I’ll show you this whole label design process using Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop.

This intermediate class is for illustrators, designers, and all you vintage enthusiasts. With this class, you’ll complete your matchbox label journey with knowledge in both illustration and typography. And these design skills will be of great use in your professional design journey, whether you want to make vintage replicas or create modern designs with a vintage twist.

Thanks for joining me again. Let’s get started!
