Floriography
A found letters project from a Typography course, Fall 2015, combined with the study of flowers and their meanings. Made using Adobe Suite and a laser cutting machine.
I collected sample of all 26 letters, isolated them on Photoshop, and integrated them into the flower silhouettes, usually as stems and leaves. I then created a template for the seed packet, with a cut out on the backside to reveal a burst of color from the inner designs. The inner designs were created using Photoshop brushes and outline the multiple meanings of different flowers. I chose a vibrant, yet limited color palette to reflect the natural hues of flora.
