Workshop words+meanings = magic

Last week workshop class was somehow relaxed and it was all about having fun creating and transforming a simple word in to a story,from typography  to ilustration and collages under Rob Walmsey guidance.

This morning the challenge is to visualise

the meaning of a word, using only the

graphic elements of the letters forming  without adding any outside parts.

 The ruls were simple,just  using bits of letters create a word visual meanin.


This task serves as a helpfull logo creating tool where is not enought to create an aeshtetic logo but a memorable one than can represent alone  an ideea. This is thought enought but combining it with the restriction of usingtypography alone but ofen getting down to the bare essentials is where the most brilliantideas emerge.
