Typography as Art
House Industries type foundry never ceases to impress and inspire with their masterful silkscreen creations. Especially when it comes to their use of layering techniques and typography as image. Their latest limited edition tour posters for John Mayer are no exception. They created a rich typographic effect by layering metallic copper, white and fluorescent red inks on French Paper’s Steel Blue Construction stock. The font used on the posters comes from their Photo-Lettering collection.
House Industries also produced “ready to hang” birch plywood units for the LA show.
I've followed the creative force that is Delaware-based House Industries since my college days in Maryland. What I love most about their brand is that they are so much more than just another type foundry. Their artistic passion and attention to detail is apparent in everything they create. And of course, their typographic skills are killer. I suggest heading over to the House Industries show & tell blog for creative inspiration.
