typography collage

For my work Bit Pazarı I needed some inspiration as I couldn’t see anymore whether I did good or bad. So I searched some typography collages as I am making a collage of different fonts in my work.

Here is a blog for experimental typography:

Google logos

Anyone hears from someone, someday the  “look at today’s google logo” word.  They interest every google user even if they have nothing to do with logos or their significant meaning. People like to see a change in that plain web page for two seconds just before they search net for something.

Here is the Google event logos for anyone interested:

The best font identifier

I had to learn what fonts were used in a printed media as I cut and pasted them for my VA301 project. I had 8 fonts that I didn’t know what their name was. Some of them was easy but some fonts were hard to find. I tried whatthefont. You upload a picture of what you have the learn and it says, in theory. But in practice it didn’t work. However it was helpful giving another link; Identifont. It asks you questions, and find outs the font. It is amazing and it works.

ps: How harder can it be to upload a DailyMotion video.. and how bad can be an instruction for god’s sake!

some catch up

I know I haven’t post much lately. It’s because of I am soo lazy even if I don’t want to.

Here is a site I liked. Content is good too but I liked the site design more. It is cool to read what he wrote while waiting for loading the site.

And a poster site. I like to look at things just to think about other stuff. When you look at an apple and find the greatest idea including a banana. I think there should be lookbooks of graphic design, photography etc.  just like fashion lookbooks. I couldn’t write about fashion, too. I definitely will in a few days..

I saw a website named logoyes. I creates quick logos, in 5 steps. Then you buy what you created. It is cheesy for sure. Here what I made using logoyes; it also creates your matching card in 2 steps. It’s like McDonald’s for graphic design and that’s why you shouldn’t expect quality.

 

Keşfekeder city guide and magazine

An underground art magazine in Washington.

Gay men’s fashion, entertainment and lifestyle magazine.

City guides.

London events and places.

City guide for girls, in London. More like a blog.

“fresh underground culture magazine”

A British  music, fashion, film, art magazine.

An alternative magazine which include unusual events around the world.

Urban lifestyle and culture magazine.

Gay and lesbian magazine.

Urban and street culture magazine.

These websites are magazines or magazine’s official websites. They both include events about their target audience, city life, culture and different kinds of art. City guides have sections for food, nightlife etc. Some of them creates their own events also. They all have similar plans, at the top and left corner the name of the magazine, and underneath it the sections. And then comes the events.

I liked “fyne times” the most, it looks simple.
