This decorative typeface was created around the idea of a playful letterform. Inspired by the idea of the incan symbols and shapes. This is a clone of FS_maya regular

Balloon Face
A fun typeface with a hand rendered feel, inspired by the art of balloon sculpturing. Also a take on the popular graffiti style of bubble writing, as seen and researched in bristol city centre.

This decorative typeface was created around the idea of a playful letterform. Inspired by Stefan Sagmeister's letterings my goal was to create a design that has similarities to a handwriting font. The idea of 'light bulb' comes from the movie headlines in the 20's.

Starting from the word 'squishy', I thought about how children play with very tactile things. If something has a tactile nature it will appeal to children to play with it and 'squish' it. From this I explored how sponges are very squeezable and photographed them in different ways. Alongside this thought process I was also sketching water in letter forms and loved how it appears to have a squishy texture in itself because it is fluid. Combining these ideas, I experimented with cutting sponges into letter forms, applying paint, squishing them and creating a typeface based on the marks they leave behind on a laminate table surface.
