Mob x Top Of The World Griptape
- designed && modelled with && advertised griptape collab between Mob Grip && the skateshop Top Of The World
- link 2 funny video showing how to use it
typography + font making
- i made these two .ttf file fonts. the first one was for a local restaurant with the help of a local artist named Patrick Thompson who cut the letters out of paper && the second was hand drawn for fun, one evening on my own
- more personal type-heavy pieces i made for fun:
ambiguous object production
- i <3 the production process && making for the sake of making things that people haven’t seen before. && for the sake of figuring how systems work. && then sharing it back through social media && new presentation && then getting input from the world. && then repeating the process all over again
once again, more human-ness on my instagram.
ultimately, i want to get really fucking good @ visual design as a whole. @ the most fundamental level. i want to concoct whimsical brain-itching visual pieces.
i luv patterns && ideas. && the patterns of ideas. && banter.
i like interesting ways of presenting things. like carving words into fruit.
&& i swear we’d have fun along the way
