All of the type in the sky images were very interesting, I really liked this one, it is just such a unique way to look at typography. It completely changes my thoughts on what typography is, and makes me want to explore more unconventional ways of creating type.
The site entitled "Lettering Grows in Brooklyn was also very interesting, because it shows that type can be found all around us. It is all over old buildings and signs, and we have to look closely for powerful typographic images in our everyday lives. The most exciting type can be found in residential areas, walk-ups and tenement buildings. This site goes on to show specific buildings that have great examples of type on them. I loved the Syrup of Figs, signs because although very worn down and almost illegible, it has so much character and really shows the vibrancy that is hidden in this city. I also really liked the sign for 400 Clinton Ave., the most interesting thing is that at the time that it was made it did not fit it, it was unique and different which makes it beautiful, and worth still observing today.
This is a great site because it really made me consider the type that can be found everywhere on campus, and especially in downtown Lawrence. The type really helps to show the historical background of a building, and give it a lot of character.
