This Wood Certainly Stand Out

For The Love of Fonts

Luca Milani’s cards combine his love of the Britannic Bold font with the charm of Christmas: brackets become tree branches; asterisks become snowflakes; and the figure 8 becomes a very portly snowman.

Transforming Typography

Áron Jancsó‘s calligraphic lettering cleverly transforms the words ‘Merry Xmas’ into the shape of a Christmas tree. His work is elegant, graceful and achieves the perfect balance between font-weight and form.

 

Rudolph’s Hex-Coded Nose

This card was designed by your’s truly – me. I replaced the word “red” with the color code #ff0000 which will always be recognized by fellow graphic designers as the equivalent of red. The mix of typographical styles is playful – in aiming at achieving the perfect balance between hand-drawn and clean-organized. If you would like to order these cards please do not hesitate to contact me 🙂
