‘bike to life’ is an experimental typography project by spanish studio toormix where parts of bicycles are used to create an alphabet, build words and compose posters.

the finished works accompanied a collection of photos documenting ‘bike corpses’ (destroyed and aboandoned bikes) as part at an exhibition shown at la bicicleta gallery in madrid last year.
