How to Spell the Alphabet
Tauba Auerbach’s book How to Spell the Alphabet is one of the top of my wishlist. She approaches language in clever executions that are extremely entertaining and great to look at. The above image is the alphabet done in semaphore (flag positions represent letters). Not to mention her amazing paintings of letterforms.
Layer Tennis
A new match on Layer Tennis was played today. This site never fails to impress me with what these designers produce in 15 minutes. Much thanks to the wonderful Lorrie Frear for sharing this site with me.
