My initial idea for the front page of the Hyde park article was to circle the area on the map where the skatepark is with the D in the Title. I tried changing the colour of it but the fonts I looked at weren't working. I think the effect of placing type on top of the map was just too busy and confusing. When looking through typefaces, I came across the hands font and thought it could be perfect if the stoke on the lines matched the stroke of the map. I then went about tracing the font in illustrator to achieve the desired effect.
