We have already mentioned the idea of depicting words with the help of drawings once, you can read more about it here here … Designers go further and create special fonts that are made from everything in the world. And what can you not find here!
Although the project was named “Handmade Fonts,” this is not entirely true. Only a few can be truly handmade, but most are done on a computer. Here we can see a poster that hides the person holding it. Only the legs and arms are on display, while the rest of the photograph is taken up by a poster. But it is he who interests us in the first place. On it we can find various fonts created using food, fabric, Lego bricks, sand on the beach, grass, knitted items, hair on a man's body and much, much more.
As you can see, all types of fonts differ in size, color, and "volumetric" - we can find both three-dimensional and two-dimensional drawings. Of course, you cannot name a practical idea - tell me, please, where can all this be applied? Okay, more drawings in the sand, but here are frozen tomatoes and a shaved man's chest … This is somehow not at all great, although some ideas, of course, can be taken into account.
For example, a declaration of love can not be written on a postcard, but tied in this way, drawn on the sand or laid out with feathers. Looks really nice! Although not all fonts can be laid out on the floor or table. However, as a concept on a computer, the idea attracts attention.
More fonts can be found here.
