Brandon Grotesque Folded

Edward Nyamenkum

Based on Brandon Grotesque Black, Brandon Grotesque Folded takes inspiration from folding paper to create a layering typeface. By overlapping the different type styles and by playing with different combinations of colour, fills, and strokes, paper-folding effects can be visually mimicked in a 2D environment. This typeface was developed by experimenting with folding paper letters, recreating the process through a 3D rendering software, and importing the resulting vector shapes into Illustrator and Glyphs.
