Au Revoir Type: Liquid Typography by Ruslan Khasanov

Beautiful liquid typeface by Russian designer Ruslan Khasanov.

“Khasanov’s inspiration came from a wine logo he was designing, using ink on paper to achieve a spreading effect, as if a bottle of wine were lying on the seabed for more than a century and the letters on the label flowed.”

He was experimenting with ink on wet paper, but as he was cleaning his brush, “I began to draw the letter ‘D’ on the wet sink surface, the letter came to life – black fine lines instantly flowed, overgrown with gray patterns like coral and then disappeared – like a caterpillar turning into a butterfly and then dying”.
