solutions - type

after rendering and playing around with my word decoded in different fonts I had come up with a few ides for my finished type for Friday.
One of my tutors suggested that I place the code to my blog, the QR code, in the middle of the word. She suggested this after seeing my illustration of the word decoded where I took the 'O' and had a random QR code in its place. I love the idea and think it really comes together for the whole notion of DECODED..!

Also was shown a number of well visually communicated images during a talk on Monday and one particular image stood out. It was the top of letters lit up on a large screen, that had the other have shown on a super clean looking, shiney floor. This meant the word became legible.
So I decided to take apart a little mirror I had at home and place it underneath the tops of drawn out letters and photograph each letter as the paper and mirror came together.

 I made a very short slideshow of all the images on Pro, thanks to the help of Hannah. Thanks again! It will be posted soon...
