The typography assignment was to “Create an upper- and lowercase 27th letter of the western alphabet or the next letterform of a non-western alphabet. Use Illustrator. Create a name for the letter‚ a place in the alphabet‚ and a new sound for it.” The letterform I created encompasses a ‘pl’ sound. I drew inspiration from combining the two letters, p & l, and tried to create a letterform that blended well with the rest of the alphabet.
