Graphics

Our next focus within graphics was typography. The design and use of text to create visually interesting  pieces of work as well as the possibility of using to text to convey a message, idea or feeling through its physical look or simply by what it says. 


The pictures below are a few examples of the typography I created. I wanted to play with contrast and the ability of using black and white to create the form of letters. Shape was also an important element to my typography, which interestingly wasn't intentional. I only discovered this repetition when looking through my work at the end of the day. 



Within the typography class we had to come up with a word and then use our word within a square, the same size as a cd case. My word was swig and again I used shapes and pattern pieces to form the letter and word, almost giving the end pieces a puzzle disposition.
