Serialized Vocabulary: A-Z Project
In my 2025 Typography IV class, I was assigned with the A-Z Project. Essentially, I was tasked with selecting a topic of my choice, and finding 26 terms relating to that theme from A to Z. Then, I was to design flash cards for these terms, front and back, as well as a box to contain all of them within.
At first I really wanted to make my topic Star Wars, but that wouldn’t have allowed me to have a lot of creative freedom regarding the visual language of my project, due to Star Wars already having a very iconic and recogniozable visual identity. So I chose a more scientific approach to space, and went with Cosmology! Cosmology is the study of the cosmos, or, the universe.
Here you can see I recreated some of my sketches in Illustrator to further narrow-down my final design.
Another exploration for my logotype was one that is reminiscent of chalkboard drawings, it gives that scientific, organic look I was looking for, so I decided to go with it for my final box logotype.
For the design on the back of the cards I wanted to include the first image of a black hole that was taken back in 2019, it may be a bit blurry, but the science nerd inside me thinks it’s just the coolese thing, and I really wanted to integrate it into my project that’s about space.
The cards below are my final designs!
