Side project: The Phraseology Project.

thumbnail13

The Phraseology Project was originally setup by Drew Melton as a way for him to hone his typography skills. The idea is that people submit words or phrases and Drew, or a guest contributor, creates a typographic treatment of the submissions.

The list of contributors include designers such as Ray Brown, Luke Ritchie, Simon Ålander and Joshua Bullock, all of whom have created some beautiful pieces of work.

Here's a collection of some of our favourites:

Victory

Once Upon A Time

Nothing Worth Doing is Easy

Life is Like a Box of Type

Legendary

Family Is Forever

Failures

Dead Men Tell No Tales

Awesome Sauce

Absolutely Fabulous

Which of these treatments is your favourite? Do you have a similar side project? Let us know in the comments.
