Additionally, it has been creatively directed by Jim Van Raemdonck, and typography and art direction by Lee Skinner." via Illusion Scene 360

Your Type of Book by Aurelie Maron

in , , ,

"Your Type of Book" is a student project from Aurelie Maron studying Digital Media at Griffith University in Brisbane, Australia. The book is a kind of a research of typography term through visual citations and quotes. "I decided to produce an alphabet of typography containing useful information related to a typographic term, a typographic artwork, a typographer and a typeface. In fact, the quote from Gerard Unger is what inspired me: "It is almost impossible to look and read at the same time: they are different actions." Every good typographer should have knowledge of both the art and science of typography and my aim in making this book was to create a source of inspiration and reference." Pity and due to copyrights issues this book can never be published. Don't hesitate to check all typography related project of Aurelie on http://www.aureliemaron.com/

Alphabetical

in , , , ,

The project Alphabetical started in several years ago when Creative Review commissioned Dan Tobin Smith to create "a Letter A" for their Annual. "Each Letter has a different approach but uses Helvetica as the base typography. Most are temporary installations, some use landscape and some were conceived as primarily moving image (such as Letter T).

New Letters will be added as they are finished and supporting material including work in progress will be added from time to time."

Sony Music Timeline

in , , , ,

The history of Sony Music is charted in a typographic timeline installed in the company's London HQ, created by designer Alex Fowkes. The huge wall graphic features the names of nearly 1,000 artists signed to the major label and its affiliates, beginning with the foundation of Columbia Phonograph Company in 1887, to recent signings Post War Years and A$AP Rocky. The Sony Music Timeline celebrates 125 years of musical history covering almost 150 square meters of wall space in Sony’s Derry Street headquarters. Using just CNC cut vinyl as the sole medium, 54 columns measuring over 2 meters tall cover feature nearly 1000 of Sony Music's signed artists from 1887 to the present day.

Emma Pike, VP Industry Relations, who commissioned the piece said, “The brief was to bring the inspiration of our music into the heart of our building and make our office space live and breathe our incredible musical legacy. Alex’s beautiful graphics and illustrations do exactly that.”
