<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Fascinated by typography and anatomy<\/strong>, Swedish artist Bj\u00f6rn Johansson dissected Garamond typefaces to create a bold, bony alphabet. Bj\u00f6rn has pushed his study of skeletons and bones to the point where the joints of certain letters are \"functional\" to tip the character into italics, like real imaginary \"bodies\". He also studied certain vertebrae by making clay models.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n

\nPresented on Behance<\/a> and promoted on the Kickstarter<\/a> platform, the letters and posters were offered for sale and then specially screen-printed in limited editions. The project proved a great success, as the artist exceeded his target and raised 9 100 dollars<\/p>\n
