These images are of typography created from potato sliced and fried to be used in promotional material for a band. Although I couldn’t find the designer, I found this particular experiment helpful for layout and the impact physical type imagery can have on the cover of a book.

These are a very clever set of food typography examples, using anything and everything to create interesting imagery. There’s so much more to this way of experimenting compared to that of replicating a food ‘look’ on Photoshop! Why not just do the real thing!

Is it 3D typography that I’ve favored in my recent posts. Or is ridiculous type something unreadable and pointless? In my opinion, ridiculous typography could be […]
