I am not attempting to give anyone a math lesson, so don't click away and fight that eight grade panic that we all get before a geometry test. I wanted to post this geometry sketch and calculations on here because I wanted to recognize the design that this image portrays. Its unusual for me to think that math can have any appealing values to it at all, but when researching geometry (because futura is a geometric typeface) I came across this simple yet defined calculation. Much of the work done in the era of Edward Johnson and Herbert Bayer looked very similar to this one and I thought that was very interesting. Maybe, just maybe, math isn't the terror that I thought it to be.
