Hospital
- 02.2009
- identity
An exercise: redesign the identity of a hospital, making it seem less cold, less prosaic and that bit more friendly.
Singapore General Hospital is colloquially referred to as S-G-H (and, sometimes, even just G-H); I thought, well, why not embrace the abbreviation?
The equity in its present logo is carried forward by retaining the green and the subtly bulging shield shape.
Below, an alternate logo, along with some basic applications of the identity to stationary.

- website
This little website grew out of a list I jotted down on a whim, with the idea being to give some graphical form to each of the items. The pages are unified by Helvetica, the position of the text and a set palette of colours.

- posters

- typeface
You Ain’t No Spiekermann is a display face based primarily on a 4 by 8 grid.
I’m new to type design, and this represents my first attempt at drawing a typeface. What you see here is very much a work in progress; you’ll likely find something distinctly off about the form of many of the letters. (You know, I’d like to believe that I usually know what I’m doing, but frankly, I think this wasn’t one of those times.)
