The Alphabet : http://www.alphatypography.com

I've had interest in computer generated type recently, so I decided to take it upon myself to try and create the alphabet within a two week period. The idea was simple, each letter to be created and be recognisable as that letter from childhood times. A is for... you get the concept. I want this site to work as a sketch sheet for art directors to quickly reference styles and ideas that can be incorporated into larger pieces. As I started I soon realised that two weeks wasn't enough time for this bulk of work. Commissions and general life got in the way. I had to set a timescale for each piece and allow some renders to be rushed. This hasn't distracted from the end result, as the project has worked and within my set timeframe. So enjoy the examples, also for a few rough areas within this rushed concept and hopefully they will inspire and give you some fresh ideas for typographical treatments.
