Type Elephant

Let me introduce you to Elmer. We met in typography class last week. He loves peanuts and cheddar cheese (though he's been rather reluctant to indulge in the latter recently; he's watching his weight). He also has an affinity for beautiful fonts and smart design.

Elmer was part of an in-class exercise to create an animal using only type. The exercise helped us recognize and appreciate letters as shapes, lines, and beautiful forms.
