One of the synonyms that came up when brainstorming the word "Method", was "Process". This made me think of the design process and how it is often visualised as a diagram like the one seem below. The idea is that you start at a point with nothing but a design problem or task, then you research, discover and experiment, then you refine what you have learnt to create a concept and experiment with your designs until you refine them to one final design.
Looking at the characteristics of the diagram I chose to experiment with my font to see if I could create letter forms that show a distinct starting point, which gets gains a thicker stroke near the middle and then come to a final point. You can see my experimentations below.
The 2nd sketch was a variety of ideas I was playing with, although they were all trying to convey the same "design process" theme.
I made a rough digital version of my 1st sketch to see how it would look. In my opinion it looks very unbalanced, although there are aspects of it that work.
