Trees Trees Trees

Since I've kind of been obsessed with working with whimsical trees for the Story Shop logo and book cover, I immediately was drawn to this typographical tree. I love how there are so many variations of type that form this very realistic looking tree, and they all flow so nicely together as well. The way the white words and the dark background work to create the leaves and shadows of the tree is genius.

Book Cover

This is obviously a Harry Potter book cover, and since we're starting to design book covers in class so I thought this would be appropriate. I love the Harry Potter books and they came to my mind because of how creative and whimsical they are, especially the cover art. The typography evokes emotion and is very imaginative.

Whimsical

This is a Russian ad I found on the internet. I love how the whimsical lines create the shape of the text. It's sweeping motion gives it a lot of movement and it creates a lot of energy.
