Decorative ideas for typography lovers!

Typography design is both science and art which is becoming increasingly popular in interior decoration. Using typography in decoration is a creative way to rediscover the hidden beauty of the lines and curves that form each character. Often, a single letter holds many more concepts in itself than the word it is part of.  Here are various ways to introduce letters and words to your surroundings:

 

1. Formerly used by printers, wooden characters can be turned into lovely decorative objects when laid out on a wall, just like a flight of words.

2. Create your own typography by adding yourfingerprints to a poster; frame it and you will add a truly personal touch to your decor.
