Typophilia - You will be given a letter and later a word to respond to. Look at a subject, topic or theme related to this. i.e. U is for urban – graffiti walls, housing estates, flyovers, maps, etc
Develop a series of 2D and relief interpretations of this letterform and combine ideas to make a series of refined compositions. Finally, design and make an 8-sided ‘leaflet’ to express a sense of your word and advertise your letterform.
Firstly, I began this project by creating different typography of my chosen letter, which was letter W.
Soon after this I found out that my word was 'window' so started to photograph things to do with windows. Also the saying, 'eyes are the windows to the soul', combining both windows/blinds and eyes together.
I decided to link eyes and windows together further and create my own glasses. Here are the images of the glasses lenses.
Here are the final images taken of the glasses being modelled for the final magazine page spreads.
