I designed a font made entirely out of lines from the redesigned NYC subway map.
The new map was released in 2025, reminiscent of the original Vignelli map that was used from 196x to 197x.
I used these letterforms to complete a pamphlet as part of Art 468. I discussed issues with the MTA as described by riders on reddit. I used these ornate letters as drop-caps.
Each entry links to a full project page, which provides information about the studio’s production process as well as a complete set of images. We split each page into two sections: the left side contains left-aligned text, while the right side contains a scrolling list of images. We set the title of the project in all-caps Helvetica Neue Bold at full opacity, the subtitles and dates in Times New Roman in sentence case at 75% opacity, and the full project description in Times New Roman in sentence case at 100% opacity. Through this typographic hierarchy, the title and bodycopy take center stage, while the subtitles provide a subtle context to each project.
