EXPERIMENTAL TYPE

Type project focussing on a selection of letters - I chose to use the five vowels as they represent a good selection of letter shapes within the alphabet. I based my final letters on the font Futura.

- LEGO TYPE -

The first letters I made were using Lego. These weren't based on a specific font. The shape of the bricks made it quite difficult to create the curves and points of the letters, but I was pleased with the overall result.

The second set of letters I made were made by carving each letter into a kiwi fruit:

I really liked the effect that carving the letters produced so I tried it again using ice lollies:
