MODULAR TYPE

After creating the sculpture and exploring different ideas for creating an architectural/typographic piece I've decided that creating a 'pre-fab' style kit of concrete pieces that come together to form type, is the route I want to take.

I'll aim to create a 'kit' with as few a pieces as possible, that can make any letter using a combination of them. The pieces could be held together by running rods through them or using carpentry-like joining pieces.

The concept is particularly relevant as it draws upon the various themes which have been continually reappearing; concrete, bold shapes, sharp lines, construction, architecture and typography.
