| Lettering
project | South Africa | New Crossroads township | 2006
| february |
| New
Crossroads is a formal township, where houses are build by goverment.
So there's buisnesses and activities people are having just at home.
Obviouslly these houses are not marked in any special way so only
locals around know that there is shop existing. My lettering project
was ment to mark these houses and in this way attract people from
more far away neighbourhoods. Lettering brought not only recognition
of sertain activity, but also to their owners gave pride and trust
in what they do. |
