Transitional Type for the Visually Impaired

My name is Katie Lee and I'm a graphic design student at the University of Cincinnati in Ohio; caffeine addict and lover of type. This blog documents the progress of my six-month long senior capstone project from concept to conclusion. Read my project statement here.  

“Blindness is increasing in all age categories. Rising premature births bring more kids with Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP), and Macular Degeneration is increasing in the elderly. The New York Times December 10, 2008 article “Diabetes Epidemic Signals an Increase in Blindness, Too” by Roni Caryn Rabin reports that the CDC (Centers for Disease Control) predicts a three-fold increase in diabetic related blindness in working-age Americans by 2050.”
