Specializing in image creation and hand-crafted typography, Studio Oscar produces work for a wide variety of clients, with commissions from advertising, fashion, publishing, retail design, film and TV.
They're featured here because of their amazing illustrations shaped by letters, 
a trend we've seen a lot out there.

SPOTLIGHT: Patrick Helmstetter

This dude is insane! He "works with words" as he says himself. He is into philosophy, poems, writing and handlettering. What caught my attention was this project he did for danny's continental cocktail lounge , where all the walls are covered with not just words, but full paragraphs.
