Fantastic collection of dynamic typography! It’s really impressive to see the unique variety of styles used to bring the type alive. There’s some brilliant examples here of how designers can push the boundaries between word and image, in many cases creating a harmonious ‘experience’ of colourful communication. The use of contrasting light and dark in the pieces serve to intensify the impact on the viewer and certainly produce striking results!

I’ve done a bit of type design as well. Take a look at my branding section. there’s a Book title for ‘The Book Of The Forever Dead’ that some of you may like.
