Phil Yamada - Paint on Print




Found these via another design blog, love the idea of using acrylic paint on top of newspaper prints, giving a strange 3 dimensional overlay effect. The graphics that he has overlaid on the pages vary wildly, but each has their own charm and merit. There are 26 unique elements in the series, recreating the alphabet. This is definitely one of the more interesting and well-accomplished uses of typography and lettering I have seen, and a good example of how to think outside the box as a designer.
