Vladimir Konca; Experimental Typography

Beans Type:














This is my favourite piece of work done by Vladimir Konca. This is due to the fact that the phrase and the objects used to create the phrase actually mean something to Vladimir. The beans (which are always growing) represent his 'ever growing handmade typography project called Diary Type'. I believe that the phrase he created with the beans is his explanation for his on-going handmade typography.

He has explained that 'Diary Type' is a personal diary that Vladimir Konca made as an experiment for his typography in 2007. For each page in the diary he would collect objects and make a letter out of them, from that he would spell out his thoughts which have a  symbolic link with the fonts and the way the objects reflected on his thoughts.
