Material Studies


This project required me to create a typeface out of a material with limited movement. By working with my material’s restrictions and discovering how my material, trimmer line, is different from others, the typeface becomes something only that medium can form. To create this typeface, Trim, I lit the trimmer line on fire to make it moldable and to fuse the letters together. The second part of this assignment was to photograph the typeface in an appropriate setting in relation to what the typeface is made from.
