"40 days of dating" Project

The "40 days of dating" project is a project which using text to show the dating emotions in 40 days. In these 40 days, Jessica and Timothy have their own rules to make this project as real experience. Rules below:



In this project, they also expressed their feeling in interview form. Thus they not only show their emotions in texts, but also in talking way to make readers understand their feeling easier.

Day 36


My partner and I choose Day 36 as our favorite. The reason is this sign actually means "forever". It is a infinite symbol.  The text in this photo is "An end is a beginning." Also, Jessica said in the interview:" every ending is a new beginning." me and my partner both agrees this opinion. As you can see in the picture, this "forever" symbol has a fading effect. However, it's not disappearing, it is repeating like a loop. This shape really matches the text in it. In addition to this, we like the contrast of the color."black" vs "orange". With the font of this text, this picture ends up in a very strong effect. It catch your eye very quick and you cannot resist to read it.

"40 days of dating." I think, Actually, people nowadays are really interested in dating experiment. Despite the art form in this project, it also tells us the differences between male and female's thought. After reading their project interview, I felt like men and women are really from different planet. It make me feel Art works can even teach you something.

There is no doubt that the idea of the combination of texts and shapes is amazing. Interesting topic with interesting fonts of texts=great typography. Combining with shapes, even more unique. Every single picture of these 80 pictures has different color tone, different fonts and different shapes, you can never get bored of them and when you read them, you get the definition of every emotion.
