• Typography, Branding

    Typetrial diploma

    I got my master's degree at the Hungarian University of Fine Arts. My graduation project investigates the possibilities of dimensional typography. I designed a typeface with multiple functions, a typeface in the classical sense and a three-dimensional object. My hobby is an extreme sport called bike trial, which gave me the idea of connecting typography with public space. Therefore my font's function relates to a bike trial track. The features of this extreme sport specify the shape of the three-dimensional characters. As a first step, I chose a typeface, Blender Pro, that was easy to transform. For this transformation, I had to figure out a modular system. I decomposed the inner shapes of the letters for smaller module pieces, which were simple geometric shapes, and then separated them with different tones and colours. These colours define height in three-dimensional space and specify the transformation process. It works as an infographic system for the users, so they can decide which part of the track meets the level of their skills. I designed the three-dimensional characters based on my experience in the sport. I dressed up the project with a visual identity because my main goal is to create a Typtrial Bike Park one day.
