Designers have always had a love affair with type and with the proliferation of digital tools for graphic formations, this relashionship has intensified. Typography is becoming more experimental and varied as a medium for communication and personal expression. Many see this as a liberation from the constraints of the grid and rules of legibilit�, making it possible to restore elements of expression and meaning in letters. In the same spirit, Typomofo showcases works that demonstrate how type today has morphed into a new breed of expresive graphic design. From ink-draw scripts to duct-tape graffiti lettering, the works are divided into four chapters : from type projects that evoke a handmade aesthetic, to digital illustrations, to mixed-media typographic works, and the unconventional use of conventional type. With projects ranging from radical experiments to large-scale graphic installations, as well as details of their design process, Typomofo reveals how recent typographical forms are conceptualised and creatively applied as a graphic device to form symbolic images and patterns : to be the message rather than just its conveyor. Tymofo seeks to be an inspiring source for those who are keen in the creative possibilities of type as part of a more sophisticated visual language that communicates and intrigues.
