album cover

Classification: san serif typeface, all capital , very geometric and balanced 

Object: This is an album cover , i like the typeface because i think that it serves a different purpose than usual , it is a displacement between the graphic elements and the title

Typography:  This typography is interesting to me because it think it serves as a visual element more than it does a type one. Although it is well composed and put together i dont think that it is there to be typographically impressive , i think it is used to make a sudden split between the graphically heavy background and the title- almost as if it wants you to pay more attention to the background by including itself so simply in the front. 
Influence: The influence this has on me is fairly large,i think that it is very important to look at type in several different ways. While it works to stand on its own most of the time , it also should lend to enhancing visual elements when necessary . I think its important to focus on it as an accessory when its appropriate and as a feature respectively.
