CHAPMAN NATION
A TYPEFACE STUDY
The premise of this project was to take a typeface and make themed icons out of the deconstructed letterforms. I chose the theme of the human bod and created my poster to look like an old anatomical poster you'd see in a doctor's office. I chose a serifed typeface so that my icons would have varying thickness in them, creating more contrast. Some letterforms in the icons are more identifiable than others, like the S's in the brain and the D's at the base of the hand. This project was inspired by the exercise "Helvetica Nation," which has the same premise.
This project was created using Adobe Illustrator.
