Volvox

Volvox by Andrea Tinnes and Martin Perlbach

"Volvox is a five level ornament composing kit... a system of 5 fonts that create a variety o ornamental composites by superimposing...
Volvox is a celebration of the organic, the ornament and the magic of the animation of inanimate forms."

In 2001 Andrea Tinnes released Volvox, which is a system of 5 fonts to be used isolated or as superimposing structures. Each Volvox has a radial symmetry, same width and centre, so they can overlap perfectly. The illustrations were inspired by ‘natural aesthetics of scientific drawings’. The potential of the multiple combinations, together with variations of size, position and color can be found at www.typecuts.com/volvox.

Deréon

Deréon dingbats by Typofonderie (Jean François Porchez)

Deréon, designed by Jean François Porchez, created for the fashion brand House of Deréon of Beyoncé Knowels. The curvy set of illustrations was influenced by her music, as the letters. “The idea is to possibly use them to create a sort of pattern on many support as possible via a basic set of elements.” (JFP – by e-mail, 2005) The dingbats were used as separate elements to build an
illustration for a simulation of the fl oor of the store in Paris.
