Lettercarving @TypeMedia

Lettercarving is a in-depth, practical class at TypeMedia on carving letters in stone. Students learn about stone, tools and assumptions about shape, spacing, construction and proportion of letters are challenged. They start making a capital R with classic proportions and end the class with a word of at least 5 letters. This word can be in any script, and does not have to mean anything.

Examples of finished stones can be seen here. Some stones are still unidentified. Who made them? If you see your stone, or can help identifying others, let us know and contact Type and Media.
