ABOUT

Troy Hyde

UK-based graphic designer who graduated from Central Saint Martins in 2006. Once in a while, an experimental font makes me straighten my back. After seeing Troy Hyde's Channeled Light Font (2010), I got to think again about the inherent beauty of natural things, and how the laws of physics create almost perfect curves. Curves we can't get by tweaking Bezier points in a font editor. Here is what Try Hyde says about the process: This font is created inspired by the shapes found at the cross section of a rolled cylinder of corrugated paper. The scanner is a key part of the process: There is high definition at the point at which the paper touches the scanners surface. Light is also channelled though the tunnel of paper, thus becomes as integral a part of the font's shape as the paper itself. Behance link.
