| Watch the video of the installation here! |
I chose this example as 3D type because it reminded me a lot of what our last project is supposed to be like. This installation was created using cardboard, which most people have just lying around from boxes and whatnot, so making an piece like this is something you can do with materials around your house/apartment/super tiny dorm room. From far away, it looks like smooth wood or any kind of smooth material, but it's not until you get close that you can see those typical cardboard creases. Pretty cool! I like that this pieces doesn't look like letter cut out from cardboard. Instead, it looks more like cardboard pieces put together to create type. The type itself looks beautiful. It is a serif type with really high contrast that has a calligraphic quality to it, like something you'd draw using a brush and ink. I think incorporating the swirls at the top and bottom of the quote complete the look.

This is nice, you can tell a lot of work was put into this, and the 3D aspect came from hand-drawn type.

This is really nice- I do wonder if the would ignite means anything deeper- what was the final outcome- was the piece lit on fire? That would have made a nice video or image to further the concept.
