"Great things are done by a series of small things brought together."
V I N C E N T V A N G O G H
Happiness can come from the smallest of things.
Type is developed through the blend of science and art, forming each curve and detail of a letter with great care and purpose. Typography is known as the art of designing letters.
This installation is comprised of handcrafted lettering designed to visually communicate positive comments. The idea is to spread a little bit of happiness into the world and build a creative community.
The audience was encouraged to look through all of the cards on the wall. Once they found a card that brought them a sense of inner happiness, they were to take the card from the wall. To build our creative community and extend happiness, the recipient was to take a picture of their card and post it on instagram with the hashtag #typographyhappiness and see how far we can spread happiness and a love of typography.
