Alphabet Soup//Typeface


                   

After looking at the responses that were given from the set of questions, many different aspects become obvious that weren't expected, particularly regarding personality traits such as being nervous and worried.  

Five key themes were then taken from the answers given, and within each topic five elements relating to each one were chosen. 

1.Worrier            2.80's                    3.Control                4.California           5.Cinnamon
nervous              music                     obsessive               sun                         strong
failure                 flares                      strict                     surf                       christmas 
anxious              drugs                      confident                sand                       sweet
irrational             campervans           calm                        sea                         warm
negative             hippies                   initiative                  big

From these five categories, two stood out and therefore looked into in more depth. 





The idea above looks at the concept of layers and how they can communicate the shell of someones personality. The ideas shows that not everyone is how they seem just by the way they look and that their is often more to them. A bold, upper case letter would be appropriate to express what people perceive the person to be like. 


This idea is a bit more comical and communicates what the person likes rather than what his personality traits and characteristics are. This design shows the theme of 80's music hence the different patterns applied to the letterforms.
