2 weeks 3 project - Creating Type alphabet










After researching into many type of typography, art, colour, packaging, strokes, The 3D type grab my attention as it is bold, and stands out from the crowd. After my research i also thought that colour is important in making the type stand out, especially the shades of colour. 
Moving on from the 3D idea, i liked the idea of a box it gave the letter some physical feel. From research i learnt the use of negative space. 

Final piece, instead of using colour on the actual letter i used colour around it, the negative space the letter creates. i used the idea of the box so that colour and negative space can be worked around and applied. i used the 3 shades of blue on one side of the square to create a little bit of 3Dness. When looking the alphabet as a whole we can see a sense of 3D. 
i chose the colour blue with black as it contrasts well, it is not a very big contrast they are both still rather dark colours unlike black and yellow, this is what i like about  it, contrasting in a different way.  

Next i may even cover more negative space with the background colour making the letter maybe more harder to red but still readable, more abstracted.
