Task: Rearrange the following text to give it new meaning using Univers 55 font at 14 pt on a 7.5" square.
"For all the beauty of pure geometry, a perfectly square block of type on a perfectly square page with even margins all around is a form unlikely to encourage reading. Reading, like walking, involves navigation—and the square block of type on a square block of paper is short of basic landmarks and clues. To give the reader a sense of direction, and the page a sense of liveliness and poise, it is necessary to break this inexorable sameness and find a new balance of another kind. Some space must be narrow so that other space may be wide, and some space emptied so that other space may be filled."
Solution: I isolated the phrase "pure geometry" and then created a series geometrical shapes with the text itself. Name all of the shapes you can spot!
