Skeletype | 2011 Act III : Skeletype
The skeleton of typography

After Exploring the typographic skin (Space typography), a mix between Latin and Arabic typographic forms (Is it still type), and the gesture of type (Spirales), I'm very exiting to introduce you the 4th step of my Archeotypographic research : Skeletype.
For this project, I undress type to discover its skeleton.
Please have a look and do not hesitate to tell me what you think about! 2012 Graphic Design, Sculpting, Typography
Is it still type? | 2011 Act II
Is it still type?

"Is it still type?" continues Space typography, in form and content. This series is an alphabet of hybrid letters, a mixing of Arab and Latin alphabets.
The forms which come out can make us think of letters , but they are no more letters really ; their meaning and concept have vanished, they can be used freely as such.
Arab calligraphic forms bring curves and sensual delight, Latin typographic forms bring rigour in movement.
Through this project which is only one stage, I try to push typographic forms into extreme steps to renew their figure, their beauty, their use.
To work in volumes allow me to have a keen sensitive approach to letters. I model them. 2011 Calligraphy, Typography, Choreography
Space typography | 2011 Act I
Space typography

Through Space typography, I would like to give life to letters; then I worked inside each type with forms, movements, and eventually colors.
It helps me to feel how is construct a letter and how it can be use as "creative typography". I work the letter in 3D, mostly with paper, because I'm becoming more and more a sculptor and working with materials (not only paper). The paper is very easy to manipulate (to cut, to fold, using different colors). This for me a real emotion.
For space typography, I didn't anticipate forms; the experience determined what I did, it's really "researches" : I'm testing, testing, and when I feel its the good way, then I do. When sculpting type, I use my graphic-education in another way than usually, and I don't use it as a graphic designer. It's not only rational (serif or without serif, which type, contrast), it's visual sensation.

Jarajaja project | 2008-2010 Act 0
Jarajaja Project

This project is a conversation with a lebanese graphic designer, Lara Captan. We asked typography through a blog during 2 years.
Those works, made by Jerome Corgier are mostly selfinitiated. There are trying to play with paper and type. It is sculptural typography. 2014 Sculpting, Typography
