Cuppa...

Today , after CCS , I began sketching some more ideas for my final 3D 't'. I've pretty much decided on my font , which is 'Elephant' because I like the lower case letter 't'. It's long and curving, it has serif and it's slightly fatter in the middle than other fonts. I think the 't' should be relatively familiar and comforting. Nothing too showy or exaggerated. Regular everyday typography like the word itself!

I'm beginning to be reminded of tea everywhere now .... this is not bad, it's more like I have a sudden heightened awareness for the stuff.... On Pinterest this evening alone I stumbled upon these :

Tonight I made an A4 teabag and printed the letter 't' on it. This is simply a demo , a prototype....if I was to choose this as my final idea, I would make it A1 or A0 size and hang it from the roof.....I'll  hopefully get some photos up tomorrow !
