Information

The following designs are a series of various typographic solutions and experiments. I’m interested in how typography can manifest itself in different forms and still maintain identifiable language patterns, irrespective of context, and with the reduction of additional stylistic elements. 

I started developing this working sans–serif as a way of understanding the complexities of structuring a complete typeface, figuring out how each character needs to interact with its adjacent counterpart in any given situation. This is still very much a work in progress, but it has allowed me to appreciate the finer details of designing type.

I drew this typeface from an unused logo for a client project. The initial designs were comprised of only a couple of characters. Using the letter O as a base, I built a grid system for completing the additional characters. 

This following designs are a mix of bits and bobs from various client projects and personal development.
