IKEA MANUAL
EXPERIMENTAL TYPEFACE
︎EXPERIMENTAL TYPEFACE DESIGN︎SEP.2018 - DEC. 2018
Typeface made with IKEA diagrams from the Ikea manual. My initial idea was to question DIY (Do-It-Yourself) culture typographically in pardoxical manner.
IKEA’s instruction manual is a perfect example of good design; printed without words, using only simple illustrations, these simple guidelines make the complex clear and make the impossible looking things possible ... As one of our goals as designers is to help other become more than they know they can be, these manual drawings let any users to be makers, builders, crafters and even designers. The manul itself embody the idealistic goals of the graphic designers.
