Object Typography

Holy shit I've never been so busy! I am halfway through my first semester/quarter of FIU and Miami Ad School. At any given moment, I am in the middle of 3-4 (mainly group) projects. But I am LOVING it. Besides the sleep deprivation, it's super fun and creative and great. The classes I am taking right now are Creative Strategy and Research Methods (at FIU) and Thinking Strategically and Type Journey (at Miami Ad School). I'll be sharing a lot of the work I do at school here!

This is a project I did in my Type Journey class. We were supposed to create 6 frames featuring words out of objects. I decided to take items that were collected in the '90s and use them to form '90s slang words.

As a collector of words and lover of lettering, I will be bringing you some uncommon, antiquated, or just fun words.

Today's word is...

de·lec·ta·tion /ˌdēlekˈtāSHən/
 n. 1. Delight. 2. Enjoyment; pleasure.
From the verb delectate meaning to please; charm; delight.
In a sentence: She took much delectation in sampling every wine.

I always hear delectable, but never delectation. It's such a delectating word, too!
