If you want to draw great forms in furniture or accessories, start first by drawing the following with pencil and paper:
Helvetica medium 60mm, 20cm height – your name and those of your family or friends for all of these
Univers – same format
Gill Sans – any format
Franklin Gothic heavy
Bodoni
Then talk about form.
