Artist inspiration for type (El Lissitzky)


El lissitzky- An artist I have found inspirational when I was developing my typefaces. His use of geometric shapes and lines in a composition or design work well and create certain feelings about that are suggested in some of his work. I like the way diagonal lines are used in lots of his work and thin lines are used against bold geometric shapes to add depth and contrast in his work which I find appealing.


Works Like these have inspired me because of there use of diagonal lines, there are plenty of shapes to be found in artworks like these and I will use this to my advantage when experimenting with my typefaces.
