While We're on the Subject

{screenshot taken from Bembo's Zoo}

While we're on the subject of animals making characters, I thought we might as well talk about characters making animals. Bembo's Zoo is a book that was created by graphic designer and brilliant typographer Roberto de Vicq de Cumptich. The book is dedicated entirely to creating animals using only characters appearing in the animals name from the Bembo character set. He recently however, turned his wonderful book into an equally as wonderful website. Using some of the animals from the orignial with the aid of Flash created an interactive, user friendly type zoo experience. To see these wonderful animals visit Bembo's Zoo, and also check out Words at Play to see more of de Vicq's animated typographic brilliance.
