Type Design

I found this image of type being used as an design in Computer Arts April 2010 issue in the Parkland Library. This doesn't really have a classified typeface really because the designer took a pre-existing font and then used his creativity to make it look like it's more fluid moving throughout the design. I would classify it more as a serif type font than anything else. The function of the image is mainly for a self project that the designer did for him self mainly than for a client. Its spacing is really super tight along with the kerning of the type as well. I think what mainly attracted me to this piece was the use of the designers creativity as an throwback to designers who mainly used type as a medium to create their work.
