Hand Stiching + Letters = LOVE


 

I spotted this new hand-stitched typeface today, and it was love at first sight. Each letter is breathtakingly beautiful. You can view the whole beautiful font, lots of other pictures, the original sketches and a behind the scene video that is AWESOME on Typography Served. Each letter took about 6 hours and the incredible designers/artists, Zim & Zou, used over 500 meters of thread. Wowzers!!! I am so grateful when other artists share this much process. It truly makes me appreciate the beauty of a project and the time, dedication and love that went into creating it.
