Classic graffiti lettering and experimental typographical forms lie
at the heart of street culture and have long inspired designers in
many different fields. But graffiti artists, who tend to paint the
same letters of their tag again and again, rarely design complete
alphabets. Claudia Walde has spent over two years collecting
alphabets by 154 artists from 30 countries with a view to showing
the many different styles and approaches to lettering within the
graffiti and street art cultures. All of the artists have roots in
graffiti. Some are world renowned such as 123 Klan (Canada),
Faith47 (South Africa) and Hera (Germany); others are lesser known
or only now starting to emerge. Each artist received the same
brief: to design all 26 letters of the Latin alphabet within the
limits of a single page of the book. How they approached this task
and selected the media with which to express their ideas was
entirely up to them. The results are a fascinating insight into the
creative process.
