Reza Abedini & Saed Meshki

Reza Abedini

I think I'm more fascinated by the look of the language than the design. It looks very violent yet very elegant. It doesn't even need to be text at all- the shapes of the letters tell their own stories.

I, too, noticed the abundance of negative space. White space, to me, gives an image a very sanitary, very organized feel. It's almost like a "live in the moment" type of thing. It calls for immediate and extreme focus on whatever is put before you. It's something I'd like to play around with a bit more.

A little more contemporary, I thought. They feel like advertisements (I think they are, in fact.) Again, I don't really need to know what the text says, because the patterns and colors bring about a certain feeling. And it's pretty cool.
