experimental type by andrew byrom

if we allow ourselves to view, and practice, one art form through the lens of another-and truly embrace the associated constraints and processes-can we open up new and undefined directions for exploration? -andrew byrom

the experimental 'letter-box-kite' design is a series of 26 typographic kites fabricated from thin nylon fabric and fiberglass poles.

the work of andrew byrom deals with three-dimensional typography whereby he uses unfamiliar applications of materials and processes as a way of forcing himself to find new forms.

embracing the cold climate of her native canada, the graphic designer has developed a series of installations comprised of larger than life texts spelled out in block letters made from ice.

the dynamic typeface was created using 3D max and realflow to simulate the forming and destruction of each letter via splashing, exploding fluids.

the temporary installation creates an landscape indoors, composed of sculptured alphabet letters that together form the text of robert walser's poem 'oppressive light'.
