Bold Typographic Murals by Alex J Fowkes

Vancouver-based artist and designer Alex J Fowkes makes typography feel alive in his vibrant large-scale murals. His work pulses with color and dimension, turning simple letterforms into architectural structures that reshape the walls they sit on.

Across city streets, music venues and creative workspaces, Alex builds messages with shadows and angled planes that push the type into three dimensional territory. Every piece is tuned to its environment, whether he is amplifying a brand message, energizing a public space or bringing a sense of optimism to a neighborhood corner.

Alongside his commercial projects for clients such as Sony Music, Lululemon, Red Bull and Penguin Random House, Alex has authored two books on typography, Drawing Type and Expressive Type, which celebrate the expressive potential of letterforms and the work of designers around the world.
