A Procedural font for Sheba's
Hope Grows coral restoration project.
Taking the team's existing coral look-dev, I modified and combined
them into a tool where inputting a character would provide a fully
procedurally grown coral biome where all coral species interact and grow around each other.
The tool also included various settings and parameters which could be easily changed
to provide different variations and control of the coral.
This project has gone on to win the Industry Craft Typography
Grand Prix Cannes Lion, a 2022 D&AD Wood Pencil, a 2022 One
Show Bronze Pencil and a Bronze and Silver Creativepool 2022 Annual award.
Coral growth and placements as determined by either
the user painting areas of the input model or by adjusting various noise patterns.
