Handmade Typography

Lisa Holland (lisaholland) — Mon, 16 Aug 2010 03:14:43 -0700

A project that got me away from the computer. I decided to try and make typefaces that were inspired by one material. The material that I chose was 'WIRE'. EdisonBell font was made from a real telephone cable. I had to make the alphabet in sets of three letters then photgraph them. I also made a poster to go along with the font. Wired font was made from coloured wire.

The Colours of Me

The Colours of Me was a project that would be used to give myself my own USP (unique selling point). It would be given to potential employers or clients and would hopefully make me stand out from other applicants. I decided that the way a person dresses and more importantly the colours a person wears says a lot about the person. So I decided to make an illustrated pie chart of all my clothing. I then made an oragami jacket which was screenprinted on the outside and had pattern cutting information (to go with the information graphics theme) on the inside along with my pie chart. The jacket can be hung on a miniature hanger that I made from wire. There is also an illustated cardboard cut out of my self and clothes that can be fitted onto the cut out for fun.

TIMELINE: 100 years of Graphic Design, Historic Events and Popular Culture

The timeline project was made as answer to the paper I wrote about whether it is possible to teach art and design onscreen. My overall response to this question was no, so I decided to make a teaching a tool that could be used in an academic enviornment. I decided to make a timeline on graphic design, current events and popular culture. I chose to add current events and popular culture to show how graphic design is influenced by what is going on in the world. All of the illustrations have been hand drawn by myself as well as hand drawn typography for the titles. There also captions with information regarding certain events. Some drawings are bigger than others to show the significance of the event. The timeline is printed on one roll of paper measuring over 7 feet long. The timeline folds into a concertina and can be stored away in a box for convenience.
