Andren | A Digital Remake
Andren did his master thesis in visual communication design at the Politecnico di Milano with the NodeBox Cornu library. The project is about a digital reconstruction of the traditional analogic process for drawing ‘illuminated natural letters,’ in the way Edward Johnston explained in 1906 in the twelveth section of his masterpiece, Writing & Illuminating & Lettering.
Andren has an illuminated type generator!
Here are some example letters. The background is contructed randomly and the letter decoration is done using Cornu splines. You can find the source code and PDF poster on Andren's website: http://www.progetto-exp.org/?page_id=97
Nice work Andren!
