I love logos.

And I love typography.

So, as expected, I’ve made one for my website using the Museo font with a weight of 500.

Let me know what you think of it.

I’m working on a concept for my personal name card and I’m envisioning using a word cloud on the back of the card to illustrate my various interests and qualities. Think of it as a resume of sorts.

The inspiration for using word clouds comes after creating a few aesthetically pleasing word clouds from Wordle – an online project originating from IBM. It has an amazing collection of really good free fonts and the intelligent layout code produces great results as shown below. You can also have Wordle go through a certain document and generate wordclouds to create a summary of the document.

I exported the above wordcloud as a pdf and then imported it into Inkscape. Using Chaitu’s color scheme, I was able to recolor the wordcloud and also rearranged it to give it a cleaner look.

I’m currently looking for namecard printers in Singapore and am also considering registering a domain name. More updates coming up.
