Typographic Biography
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
For this project, I was tasked with designing an interactive piece to present a specific individual’s biography. I’ve always been fascinated by arcade fighting games and the individuals who compete in them. Daigo Umehara is one of the most prolific Street Fighter arcade players in history and who I decided to put on display for this project.

Creating an interactive biography, I allowed the typography and design elements to do the storytelling. I created a simple trifold that was representative of an arcade cabinet. Arcade Cabinets are meant to be eye catching so I had to make use of large and bold typography with vibrant colors of orange, yellow, and purple.
