Smaller School Projects
These are all examples of other school projects I’ve done in my time at LSU.
Ligature Postcard: Design a personal ligature using your initials that embraces your own style. Create a save the date postcard announcement about an upcoming type conference. Your ligature must be the main feature; additionally, add the ligature to a secondary product.
Typography Poster - Select an artist and create a poster for an event using exclusively typography.
Stamp Project - Select an everyday object and explore it from all angles and viewpoints. Explore and visualize a concept and develop one of them to create and design four postage stamps. Each image should connect to your object without being too predictable.
