Description

Escher’s works, with their inventive use of perspective and optical illusions, show that not everything has to adhere to a strict, logical structure. Similarly, my project explores unconventional ways for text to flow and interact, encouraging users to view it through a fresh and imaginative lens. It’s about challenging norms and opening up space for unexpected possibilities.

Description

The Penrose Stairs, an endless loop of steps that tricks the mind, illustrates how design can challenge logic and create something entirely unexpected. This concept can be translated into text flows that break free from traditional layouts, forming patterns that feel continuous and dynamic. By moving beyond predictable structures, such designs invite new ways of interaction and encourage fresh perspectives, offering an experience that feels both seamless and full of surprises.

Description

Romanesco broccoli, with its spiral structure of repeating fractal patterns, showcases precise geometric formations found in nature. These spirals demonstrate how structures can flow in complex, layered arrangements instead of straight lines. Text, similarly, can adopt intricate patterns, creating layered, organic flows that encourage exploration and engagement in unexpected ways.
