NTU Art & Design Book 10/11
“The Manual for Creative Action” is the deliberately unconventional title of the new Nottingham Trent University Art and Design Prospectus - a book that encourages creative growth, personal development and self expression. The book is differentiated throughout by a series of statements and slogans such as ‘Sharpen Your Pencil’, ‘Love Your Imagination’ and ‘Wear Your Ideas’.
I personally love the treated type on each page and how it fits so well with the copy.

Typosynaesthesia by Anna Short
The word synaesthesia (which literally means “together sensation”) is a neurological condition where the stimulation of one sense triggers an involuntary response in another. A common example is colour-grapheme synaesthesia, which causes letters or numbers to be perceived as coloured. The precise colours perceived are unique and usually remain consistent for each person.
‘Typosynaesthesia’ is a simultaneous exploration of typefaces and colour-grapheme synaesthesia, with each letter and number displayed in a different colour, as a synaesthete might perceive them.
