Modular Installation


Above: Scott Kellum’s initial modular typeface design became the foundation for a modified Rubik’s Cube in which the alphabet could be more easily and more playfully produced. At Scott’s site, you can buy your own Typecube or download the font whose characters serve as its basis.
Working in small groups, construct an alphabet (A–Z, 0–9) out of repeated modular elements. Letters should be a minimum of 5x5 feet. Document your results.
This assignment is from the class Typographic Research. It is completely inspired by I ♥ Typeworkshop’s fantastic “Manual Pixelism” workshop.
