Quotes - Abe Lincoln -2


Reworking on the Quotes project.
Quote
"If I were two faced, would I be wearing this one?"







The design of the poster, billboard and T- shirt is meant to express the idea of being two faced. It is a simple design because of the humble character that Lincoln was as well as his humble beginnings and rise to being President of USA. 

The typeface I used this time was Baskerville. Although the typeface is British, the design of the typeface works well with the way people think of Abraham Lincoln in my opinion.

Quotes - Abe Lincoln


Typographic work based on a quote by Abraham Lincoln.

"If i were two faced, would I be wearing this one?"







The typeface I used was Astigma Regular designed by Eric Oehler in 1996. I chose the typeface because I wanted one that would show the two faced element of the quote and this typeface did that. Its also quite an ugly and garish typeface which goes with what Abraham was saying in the quote as he is renowned to be quite ugly.
