Time for fun typography homework!
This time we were supposed to create 15 different monsters/animals by using typographical characters only. There were different approaches to deal with this task:
- minimalism: the less characters used to depict an existing animal everyone still recognizes the better
- create one huge, extremely complicated creature
- concentrate on one font
- and my choice: ANARCHY!
Well, I did have a plan (so it’s a systematical anarchy ;)). I picked an interesting font and just started trying out and analyzing the font’s characteristics.
Here is my fine assortment of Typomons!
This exercise is supposed to make you see more than just boring letters and teach you to make a more illustrative use of typography. And it’s supposed to make fun I guess 😀
