74. Plan for Interruptions

image

Planning is one of the foremost principles of design. Formats are plans. Grids are plans. Interruptions can be a major part of the plan, and typography can be part of a very clear plan for interruptions. By determining what name or feature is worth setting larger or bolder, what needs a color, and whether a drop cap is helpful or necessary, a designer makes decisions about what can be considered typographical interruptions.

Varying image sizes can also provide controlled interruptions, giving energy and excitement to a piece or spread.
