Typography Is Sexy!
By Phil FranksNow that dynamIt has moved to the Arena District we are surrounded by great food, entertainment, and of course design! Our office is coming together nicely, we are just missing the odds and ends, but we needed some nice black and white photos to hang on the walls. So, Steve and I took it to the brick streets and alleys with a camera to find some artistic shots to fill the frames. We stumbled upon numerous examples of found typography on our hour and a half excursion, and quickly realized that the area was a photographer’s dream. I also realized that we often overlook some great examples of typography as we go about our daily lives. Those subtle examples, like bumper stickers and posters, as well as dramatic ones, such as signs and graffiti. There is good design all around us conveying messages, holding meaning, and telling us where to park. So I wanted to showcase some of the great examples that we found right here in the Arena District. I’m sure that I overlooked some, and I’m positive that I could max out our Flickr account if I walked through downtown Columbus (that post in the future!). Below are a few quick crops of the typography in action, but you can browse the dynamIt Flickr account and see full size versions of these as well as other shots!
