The earth doesn’t have an even balance of heat and the reason for this is because the earth is a geoid ‚ the sun’s rays hit directly on the equator(caused by unequal insolation due to three factors: angle of strike‚ atmospheric depletion and surface area.) and then move outwards towards the polar areas. The atmosphere together with the ocean currents work hard to try and even out the imbalance of heat energy by redistributing the air from the equator to the Polar Regions but also from the Earth’s

The key research question of the thesis is to clarify the identity of Super Normal in driving a good and sustainable type design together with its corresponding visual manifestations. In addition to the literature review‚ for this research‚ case studies of ten Super Normal Latin typefaces‚ namely the most timeless and frequently employed types‚ are selected to generate an analytical comparison to investigate how normality visually communicates and operates through a relatively long time period‚ from
