Stereo-Type, Minna Sakaria 2015
Type design, T-shirt print
Stereo-type
Stereotype is a word originating from type practice, it is a solid plate of type that insures that the same message can be re-produced without variation.
This project looks on typographic and linguistic stereotypes for gendered products, such as boys- and girls t-shirts at H&M. It is an exploration of the connotations of these two binaries, and a subversion of the solid stereotype into something more fluid and queer.
The typefaces for the project are custom made and called Sans and Avec.
