Project AAMI Park
Typography & Branding
Australian National Stadium
Inspirational Typography By A Building
An exploration through typography to rebrand the AAMI National Park in Australia. Taking distinctive parts of the building and getting inspiration for form letters football stadium. My inspiration was looking at the building from a plan view, the shape and how their exits in all parts of the building which is convenient for people who come and watch. The alphabet can be seen with the combination of circular and triangular shapes, to add elements from the building itself.
Smaller details that I’ve also added in was the football or rugby ball on each horizontal alignment of each letter as the main sport features throughout the typography. Lastly, cut outlines running across each letter to sections all the shapes and for an additional unique touch. The main architecture of the building when the main typography and the logo is place on. Everything is kept minimalistic so when people drive pass they notice the logo of right away.

Design Reflections
Inspirational Typography By A Building
This was my first project that the brief was focused on typography, development of each and individual elements of the alphabet. A grid base structure that I have to construct in Adobe Illustrator and hand-drawn on gridded paper to craft each letter. Each stroke was inspired by the plan layout of the most iconic national stadium in australia therefore, the framwork of the letter is angled and chunky to added the bold affect of the building. The develop of the color palette in combination with the typeface I’ve designed has re-flourish a new brand identity for the stadium. Unique and playful icons are an external elements to help push the branding concept of my typography into a more sophisticated environment.
