Selectric Necklace by Lawrence Kwok:
“This project is the result of a collaboration with designer, Monika Wensel. Each typeface is coupled with a particular type of wood, such as Purple Heart, Tiger Wood and Walnut.
With the help of a graduate student over in the National Institute for Nanotechnology, we also sputtered a few of the pendants in gold. Since this occurs in a vacuum on a nanoscale, we were able to plate the typewriter ball in a perfectly uniform layer of pure gold, one particle in thickness.”
Really creative concept in turning a series of IBM Selectric Typewrite balls into necklaces and to wear typefaces out as an accessory, but I would prefer it more if it was possible to come in a smaller size.

Hand Lettering by Krista Farrell:
(Hand lettered typefaces using tech pens on bristol board)
Pretty cool typography – I like the idea of incorporating well-known symbols into the fonts, such as making an ‘A’ with the recycle signs.

Georgian Font by Tamuna Kolotauri:
My guess is the inspiration came from pumpkin carriages (don’t they look like pumpkins)?
