We were tasked to pick a type foundry to research on and make a book for. I chose Max Phillips and his founded type foundry, Signal. He was originally a toy maker so I decided to create a cube reminiscent to that of a Shape Puzzle kids toy. Each sides of the inside of the cube has a specific colored shape attached to it. Each shape is a miniature flip book that talks about a specific typeface. The middle part is a dodecahedron that showcases the type foundry's created logos for their many clients.
