What does anxiety look like as a letterform? This project started with that question. As part of a course focused on type design, each student created their own typeface built around a single concept. Anxiety became the brief: letters that feel unstable, urgent, on edge — carrying the weight of the feeling in their form. The typeface was then used to design a poster where the typography itself is the message.
