Handmade Type

My Handmade Typeface

In our Typography Project we were given the task of creating our own Alphabet. This had to be placed into a grid and presented neatly on the page. 

We had to pick something to create this Alphabet with and so I decided on sweet wrappers. I thought that twisted roses wrappers would be the best of ideas due to the unique colour that the wrappers bring to the page and it would be more interesting than the wrapper on a page with a letter cut out of it.

I chose a grey background for the fact that it brings the colour out more and makes it look like they shine more. 

The space could have been used more wisely to prevent the letters bumping in to each other and joining but the alphabet has turned out nicely and can be identified.
