Metrotype

Designers and typographers are constantly in search of creative motivation. Metrotype shows how cities supply an abundance of material that is inspiring. In this collection Mike Nugent presents a hybrid photo album /scrapbook of his inspirational discoveries. He explores a macro view of typography from various cities across Canada. Neglected signage, graffiti and hand lettering are some areas that go beyond being simply inspirational but further serve as a window into the culture that creates them.
