Secret Techniques: Typography & Grid Systems for Streaming ✨

Secret techniques… revealed!

I wanted to document some of the graphic design-related tricks and techniques that I use regularly for the design of my stream (and beyond). For now this is focused on typography fundamentals and the grid system that I use for my stream layouts, but this will be an ongoing project.

I believe that everyone can benefit from a foundational understanding of typography. I hope you find it helpful and interesting!

I'm happy to answer questions, and welcome suggestions for future updates! Feel free to send me a DM on Discord or Bluesky. ✌🏻

Everything is built in Figma using open source typefaces. You can view the project, make a copy, and modify it however you wish!
