Typographic Fortune
I created fortune cookies with a ‘typographic fortune’ and picked quotes from James Victore’s “Feck Perfuction”. The message and the advice is general enough to be understood in various ways depending on the context–just like a real fortune cookie message. In order to relate it more to design, I made origami fortune cookies using patterned paper. Two of them have metal detailing and the other one has poured paint with different finishes. This create more visual interest because they all look slightly different depending on the angle of the light.
Some of the advice found in the cookies is “Technology is not the answer–you are the answer” or “There is no right font. You are a magician, make your own”.
