I've developed a set of 7 basic shapes, when duplicated, allows me to create any letter. Using the basic idea of dividing the sections of a letter into pieces, similar to that of a stencil, it allows for free standing pieces, mirroring individual architectural structures. The way the pieces fit together also resemble construction of a sort, and when fabricated from concrete I think will be a great physical representation of the relationship between type and architecture.
It's interesting to see how my initial themes of strong shapes is present so literally, 7 strong simple shapes are the basis of my final output for this project.
