This editorial illustration project explores the dual personality of the goth girl archetype using only typography. The design highlights the contrast between her dark, ghostly exterior and her lovable, intelligent interior, creating a sense of strangeness and awe through typographic expression.
The project employs a contrast of typefaces, colors, and textures to represent this duality. The final composition integrates sharp, spooky serifs with soft, rounded elements like beads and threads, symbolizing both the goth girl’s edgy aesthetic and her underlying harmony. By manipulating typography’s form, weight, and embellishments, the design captures the goth girl’s fashion, attitude, and complex personality in an abstract yet evocative way.
