Some Good Design !!!!!
Type Tasting (click to blog)
so many typo things on here!!!
‘Design’ by Martin Cahill (click to link)
“I wanted represent the whole design scene in London, from iconic figures such as Neville Brody and Vivienne Westwood to creative agencies such as Pentagram and NB Studio and to the individuals and students striving to make their mark on the London design landscape.”
“I didn’t want to follow the obvious clichés or to merely reproduce famous objects of design with my word. Instead, I decided that the best approach was to evoke through the form of my letters what I consider the core principles of London design – creativity, innovation, intelligence, colour and energy.”
“Saying that, Harry Beck’s iconic tube map was the starting point for my concept and tube stops were the inspiration for using coloured pin heads. I decided not to restrict myself to the colours of the tube map as I wanted a palette that reflected the multiculturalism and diversity of the London design scene.”
“The process of producing my concept involved placing the glass fashion pin heads in a modular pattern reminiscent of Alan Fletcher’s famous Reuters logo from 1965 and Damian Hirst’s spot paintings, in the form of the letters. I then removed pins from the edges of the letters to create a more informal shape, which in my mind represent the constantly evolving, always challenging London design scene.”

Space and architecture design sometimes feel like a paper art with a strong 3D feeling!!!
.jpg)
Light with wonder , the effect to the space and the way, the idea to build the "solid light" is quite feeling rich, feels bit twisted, lonely, fickleness. And the products which to keep the light and the texture of these wonder lamps are quite daily thing, normal as those fungi mushroom, but they're just got a different inner with others, they gonna glow, lights up the space.
"Obvious, since both designers work with archetypal materials that take their form via coagulation. Studio Job makes monumental objects of cast
bronze. In recent years, Bergmans made a name for herself with mouth-blown crystal that
coagulates into fluid forms. But especially obvious since both studios place everyday implements
in a different, surprising context."- quote from http://www.piekebergmans.com/wonderlamp/

Type Safari: Dalston
Learn about the typography of signage on a guided walk, photograph letters to make up a phrase & end up in a Dalston bar.
Learn about the typography of signage on a guided walk, photograph letters to make up a phrase & end up in a Dalston bar.
(Note: in the winter the majority of the session will take place in the Type Tasting studio).
Spend an evening learning about the typography of signage on a guided walk through Dalston. We start in the nearby Type Tasting studio to look at type styles and for an introduction to the typography of the area. We then explore the architectural and social history of the area through the type and signage to be found along the way. You will also be given the challenge of photographing a selection of the letters to create your own Dalston artwork.
Upcoming dates:
Thursday July 4th, 6-8.30pm
For all (no previous creative experience necessary)
Dalston is a vibrant area in which bars and shops are constantly popping up and the signage is ever changing. Many venues, along with their signage, have become Dalston landmarks from Dalston Superstore’s neon, the Art Deco letters of the Rio Cinema’s, the enigmatic Birthdays Display Type ‘B’ to the chatty cinema sign in the ubiquitous Helvetica above Ruby’s Bar.
We will end in a Dalston bar where we’ll take an alphabet themed playlist to enter into their playlist competition!
ype safaris are led by graphic designer Sarah Hyndman who runs Type Tasting workshops. These are sessions in which participants get away from the computer to experiment with type and explore its expressive qualities.
“The Dalston Type Safari was a lovely way to spend a Sunday night. Informative but not stuffy, fun but not dumbed down, it was a pleasure to learn a brief history of type and get more of an insight into one of London’s most interesting areas. The mix of people in the group made for a friendly, inclusive atmosphere and a very democratic way of learning. It’s great that even those who are mostly desk-bound professionally can try their hand at something creative without the fear of looking daft or not being good enough.” Emily Gosling

01. The very start about where the ideas from.
The idea of glowing typography project was inspired by loads of glowing thing , for instance, star, lighting, fireflies, jellyfish, foxfire, Life of Pi, glow sticks and so on.
I fancy things which can glowing in the dark, especially things which looks totally normal in day light. When they glowing in the dark, the mild light melting the dark, it's quite touching and makes you wonder.
They're glowing with some kind of emotions that you can feel, but wordless to describe it .However what you can think about in that moment it is much more than the beautiful itself. This is happening, I am here and I am looking at them igniting themselves for a whole new life and I just feel alive.

Not just movie, lot more artists gain ideas form these glowing stuff and created loads of art works.
But these fancy glowing stuffs just amazed me cannot bring my wonder come to a specific idea for a proper project. And then I found Neon sign, people designed countless neon lights with typography arts glowing in every night, they' re cool, they're nostalgic. but I want to use a different approach to make a glowing typo work.
