Typography

I absolutely loved this project. I think it was because I enjoyed matching the typeface to the words...letting the typeface describe the words. I experimented with which typeface suited the words which I had and also the composition of the words within a frame. I think the fact that it was hand rendered and done on layout paper gave it far wider possibilities.
I also used this way of 'type matching' for a word that I had invented in the 30 things to do project. 


These are two lines from Robert Frost's poem 'Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening'.
I have tried to 'express their sense using pure typography'
