Symbol Iterations




I was trying to lean toward the square but ended up creating a melting like symbol.
But I still think I am going to stick with the square shaped ones still.

"Na" processes


 
 
I tried to use fonts that were simple and mostly without serifs (except Utopia). I think the top grouping with the cut out of the "N"s are my most successful idea. I want to stay in the cube/rectangle shape to mimic a salt lick or salt cubes.
Which is one reason why I chose to try doing 3D symbols. I do not think are as successful as the first grouping.

Sodium (Na) progression

I have been working on my drawings for typography. I thought drawing 30 sketches for my element (Sodium, Na) would be difficult, but it turned out to be somewhat fun.

I think these are my final fonts, but I am not 100% sure. I really like DIN 1451. Sodium seems like a very loose font, and no serifs. Mostly because I think of table salt, and that seems like a loose laid back kind of imagery.
