Typography

portfolio


quick post as it is late, just been sorting out my portfolio tis almost finished but check it out themightybuck.carbonmade.com

the good old days!


Found this amazing video on how to set type, I really enjoy the nit and grit of setting your own type. There aint many places that use this method left which is a shame. I think if every agency in London had a letter press it would make it a better place, I would love to own my letter press and a couple of boxes of type! if any one has one for sale let me know!

wilfred owen: Dulce et Decorum est


I was cleaning out my room the other day and came across all my old english notes from gcse, i found a file saying “war poetry” and the first poem on top was this, Wilfred Owen: Dulce et Decorum est. I remember studying this poem in a lot of depth and found it quite moving and sombre. I wanted to set my self a challenge to make some what of a graphic piece in homage to this extremely famous poem. As typography aint my strongest point in graphics design but really interests me i thought this would be a fitting way to go about things. The image below is my typography piece which i believe shows the sadness of the poem and is also a visual representation of the poem.
