Tailor-Made: TRUST THE FUTURE. The Future will be filled with values more reminiscent of traditional value constructs. We will once again place the highest value on creations that have come from the hands of man.
Symbolic primitives collide and create visual density which is meant to evoke an anachronistic clash of postmodernist aesthetics informed by ancient beliefs in mysticism and the occult.
In the future, without the occurrence of a global catastrophe, density will plague all mankind. Design needs to embrace minimalism and simplicity to counteract super-abundance. All true things come from a single source.

This typographic image is comprised of a handcrafted script - sculpted into an iconic primitive. The letterforms are entirely new and seek to incorporate elements of kufic/sufic calligraphy as well as grid based typography ala Mueller-Brockman or Tschichold. It reads as a prayer for the future.
This series of images was created with a mathematical visualization application - all based on polynomial functions of the number 7 - and primes. These various visualizations were further altered for aesthetic purpose.

Forms based upon structures of 7 - with language focused on names of the 7 Earths of the Islamic Faith - central Triad referring to the object of worship and devotion.
Directional orientation - pointing towards tomorrow. The future will be navigated once again by a select, bold few. The creators of consumables will eventually die off amidst the rise of the great new idealist.
