Type & Urban Decay

Letterforms as memory for places left behind.

See it in the 3D portfolio Type & Urban Decay

My MA final project, on how type can hold on to the memory of a place in decline.

I chose sites with deep historical and emotional value, then matched each with type and lettering that bring its story back to the surface.
