Typo T-shirts 01
Thursday, March 18th, 2010For a couple of weeks, some Cats and others have been reuniting around Harrisson for what he calls “Invisible University” lessons on typography, the letter, and fonts. The 2 hour sessions consisted of him talking about the different aspects of type and how to arrange it in the grid, thus showing us his favourite books and grand masters from his large graphic design book case.
Last night we had a playful time in the +nurse+ studio, with the aim of participating in a competition on T-shirts and Typography. So we gathered round a few sheets of vynile, beer, crisps and a hot press.
Here are a few picts of the hand-cutting session….
