Typography Design

About

What are type sketches? These 4 in x 4 in compositions are made in my free time. Each piece uses materials such as– Letraset, glue, cardboard, notes, ink, paint, tape, pen, pencil, and paper. The goal of this self-initiative is to design with a hands-on approach and push myself creatively within a short timeframe (each composition being made in about 15 minutes).

Imaginature Studio
I was tasked with creating over 50 images based on a text of 1,000+ words about nature. For inspiration, I chose the album Monoflora by River Whyless, drawing specifically from the song Michigan Cherry. Compositions were divided into three categories: 15 typographic, 15 graphic, and 15 photographic. Later, further exploration was done by categorizing compositions based on material and emotion. The purpose of this exercise was to play, use unconventional materials, and strengthen creativity.
