Concrete Type Piece.

Inspired by SuperExpresso's work I took photos of concrete textures and created type using a real locking slab rule. It took me a while to figure out how to make the type work well and really pop-out. The hardest part was really thinking about the layout so that all your attention is drawn to the "type". Overall I am really happy with this piece and I am glad I used handmade methods to produce a strong digital outcome.

Type Poster



Thinking with Type poster- I designed another type poster but this time I chose more colourful imagery and went for a symmetry kind of theme with the type. This time round things are a lot better but it's still early days.

Type poster

I produced a rough version of a type poster for my type project. the poster is based around Ellen Lupton's Thinking with Type.

I still feel it needs more development but it's a good start.
