ACAC 03 Chalenge

This is my first time joint this competition. I Submited two designs, I really hope one of them can make me win this challenge. :)

1. GOD/JESUS - symbiotogram

(GOD/JESUS) - Symbiotogram

From the first time i decide to make this ambigram, i think that G and U-S is a nice combination. I got the inspiration from my friend's ambigram "YOGI" which is have the similar form in the G-I and Y. (you can see it in this blog).

Second thing to think is the O and E-S combination. I thought that O will only nice to combined with S. Lately I found that J-E and D combination wasn't good enough and really hard to make it read as "D". So I decided to combine O with E and S, and I used this half-Omega symbol to make the combination look as natural as possible (also to say that GOD is the Alfa and the Omega).

Last, about J and D combination. Like I said, first i thought that I wanted to make J-E and D combination, but its didn't look natural enough. Luckily, I found this J and D combination in my way back home one night. I just thought that it was simple and can read easily.

This is my first design of GOD/JESUS symbiotogram. It made from a circle that i cut and paste together. I don't think this design readable enough, so I make another design (that finally become my final design).

2. HOLY SPIRIT - rotational

Holy Spirit - rotational

In this ambigram, from the beginning, I realized that S was the natural ambigram that can I made as the centre of this ambigram, so I made the exploration with the combination between H/I-T, R/O-L, and Y/P-I. I find that it was not easy enough to made this ambigram. I made a sketch over and over again before finding the right combination (I'm sorry i can't post the process here).

In the digitalizing procces, I reconstruct MCF Bad Manner font to became this ambigram. I choose blue as the color, simply because, I like it. :)

So, those are my designs I submit to joint ACAC challenge. Hope you enjoy my works. :)
