Bad Type Day Out

One of the projects in the first term was focused around bad typography. Throughout the class we were given various bad fonts which we were going to build out of wood and then take on a day out. This is a documentation of the day.

It started in the studious where we were given all the letters to play with and then photos were taken. Miriam, Rachel and I decided to try and stuff as many of the letters inside our clothes as possible.

There was a particularly angelic looking Jokerman 'O' which we then hung from the ceiling to look like a halo.

Here is the final shot.



We then took our letters altogether outside of college we went to the Tate Britain where we interacted with some of the pieces, hung them on scaffolding and finally placed them on the steps of an old church just before it began to pour down with torrential rain. Overral it was a good day out even if it was brought to a rather abrupt end!
