Typography of Chernobyl

June 13, 2015  /  Jess Jardim-Wedepohl

At the beginning of June, we were lucky enough to spend two days in the Chernobyl exclusion zone! Apart from the stock standard creepy dead-eyed dolls and abandoned fairground equipment that everyone loves to photograph, I was really excited about all the cool examples of Soviet era typography.

April 22, 2015  /  Jess Jardim-Wedepohl

I've been stalking Dani on Behance for a while now, due in part to my love of twirly typography. Imagine my excitement when I walked into one of my favourite lemonade-and-scrabble spots to see her stuff on the walls!

November 29, 2014  /  Jess Jardim-Wedepohl

Last week I went to the opening of UJ's Faculty of Art and Design 2014 student exhibition.
