Embracing quantity

Perfectionism is a trap that prevents moving on to the next thing. By embracing quantity, Wille Larsson Kangas shifts focus from flawless outcomes to continuous making. Quantity becomes a method for learning, refining intuition, developing taste, and discovering unexpected directions that would otherwise remain hidden.

Deconstructed / Transforming Type

The project deconstructs and rearranges content from well-known publications to reveal new perspectives and connections. Instead of simply breaking structures apart, existing material is bundled, reinterpreted, and redesigned. By challenging conventions in typography and printing, the work becomes experimental—testing boundaries, exploring new design approaches, and questioning established norms.

Stacked Letters

Students explored the alphabet as an open system rather than
a fixed set of characters. The focus was not on legibility or individual letters, but on experimental variations and possibilities in letter and character construction. By combining two letters, new forms
and meanings emerged, challenging conventional typographic structures. The resulting alphabet exists in a loose, non-linear order, emphasizing process, transformation, and visual experimentation.

Experimental type projection

Moving beyond the limits of printed experimental type posters, this project explores typography as a three-dimensional, spatial medium. A typographic inflatable environment transforms letterforms into an immersive architectural experience—one that can be entered, inhabited, and explored, allowing type to be perceived through scale, space, and physical interaction.

T2B Magazine: Fragmented Type & Subcultural Artifacts

This work explores the translation of graffiti’s raw energy into a digital-analog hybrid. Created for the TOP2BOTTOM magazine, the typography reflects the modern consumption of subculture: a fast, vertical scroll from top to bottom. By distorting letterforms through intentional imprecision and layering, the design mirrors the fleeting nature of the “feed”. It’s an experimental documentation of the southern avant-garde, turning transient fragments into a lasting typographic archive.

The Beginning

The Beginning is a series of artworks united by the story about one small beginning.

For a long time, Nautilus the Human has been reflecting on what it means to be a designer — who others expect a designer to be, how a designer sees themselves, and, most importantly, who he wants to be. He decided to let this work serve as the first step in his journey toward finding those answers.

He says, “Stay true to yourself, and if it doesn’t work — go back to the beginning.”

55555 System

This open modular system turns the Unicode classification order of a common font file into a powerful controlling tool for all visual applications. Based on a simple 5×5 grid, it provides more than 400 glyphs for Latin and Cyrillic script, plus numerous graphical elements, wildly combinable in an almost infinite manner.

Love

This work stems from the idea that being love is a supreme creative act. The typography is conceived to transmit the vibrational presence of love as a state of consciousness rather than a romantic gesture. Each letter embodies an inner, soulful condition that transcends cultural conventions and becomes a universal language. In a context marked by global violence, the piece asserts love as an active, urgent, and political force.

Menu

Menu is a custom display script typeface designed for the installation Design Menu, presenting the Innovation Design Studio team of the Department of Design (Faculty of Arts, Technical University of Košice) at Designblok in Prague. In its experimental form, the typeface expands into large-scale letterings that shape the installation’s distinctive visual identity.

Alien Cereal

“Alien Cereal”, was inspired by a photograph taken at a lab with a coffee machine. The mechanical appearance of the drip tray was also accompanied by a face. This Pareidolia effect prompted me to create this font, as part of my semester project for the course “Experimental Design Basics” supervised by Professor Christian Stindl. This course was all about the iterative process of design, and creating a font from scratch.
