letras culturales!

the finale project in Typography class, was to make an alphabet based on one of the old cultures that existed in Peru. i chose Chancay, they had lost of curves and not so much little details, like a thousens of dots etc.
here is the drawing i was inspired by and the cultures name in color. which where i based on the main palette they used (red, black, white)

the drawing is a feline

this is the alphabet, i really love this.

letras!

i had to make my own font... not actually, i mean it's not on word or any where for you to download.

just for the eyes to see here :P 

the task was to create 9 styles, for square (E), circle (O) and triangle (V) letters

and out of all of them my teacher chose the 6th one, and so i gave it a name "MARVELOUS"

* my second fav was 9th one, reminded me of flash :D

lettering!

so the next project i had to do was create a lettering with the title of a book (in Spanish) and i chose the Jaime Beyly's "Y de repente un ángel"

this took a long time to get started, cause i had no idea how to make it. but then i just started making curvs and voila! :)

cartel felicidad!

ok, so my second project was to create a poster about "felicidad" (happiness) and this is what i made.

everyone who saw it looks like a poster for a baby's rooms, i thought the same thing. i was inspired by the little prince drawings, and by Fito Espinosa.

the message i put was a quote by Helen Keller, we had to write an essay about happiness and i found it and loved it :) 

i really love this poster, one of my fave for sure this semester.

create your name!

ok so, the CD's were the last thing i did in my first year in college. i guess this means i'll start posting my work from this semester... here goes.

Typography Class: design your name

it has an alien style to it, right?... believe it or not, i did not find it easy to create this :P
