TYPOGRAPHY.

For my own design of Typography, i used the Quote ".. Not perfect, always have a little edge." This quote was featured in the documentary of the type "Helvetica". It inspired me along with the concept of edgy punk fonts which were used in the 80's era by punk bands such as 'Blondie' and 'Sex Pistols'. These edgy, provocative type faces created a 'punk' facade to the world, something of which their 'punk-rocker' followers would be able to identify with. I intended to capture this idea, along with the aesthetic of Helvetica, and transform a type face which has been used all around the world. For this I was able to create it using tools on photoshop mixing both straight bold Helvetica and my design of punk type. I wanted to keep the Helvetica untouched and use the space around the lettering to show the "little edge" I was aiming for.
