The Other Island

We are all about playfulness. While browsing Guillaume Apollinaire’s 1918 book of calligrammes, we realized that few contemporary long-form examples of this technique exist.

To remedy this, we built a prototype fable in type – a typographical odyssey that marries calligramme, concrete and visual poetry text design with modern computer programs and processors.

The result is a celebration of typography, wordplay, form-play, whimsy, and poetry, both intentional and accidental.

We may be taking this to the next level in the near future. Subscribe below for updates.
