TYPO Brooch

We live surrounded by an enormous number of characters every day. Information is quickly read and flows to the next. But what if characters moved slightly away from "meaning" and appeared at your chest as a single "form"? TYPO is a brass brooch that translates the beauty of typography into a tangible shape. When you slowly focus your eyes, words emerge. A silhouette that appears to be abstract geometry at first glance. By deliberately breaking down the letterforms of the alphabet and uniquely composing the letter spacing (kerning), the characters rise up as "forms." Each shape cut from a single brass plate is one of a kind.

TYPO has another way to enjoy it. By raising the clasp pin on the back, it is designed to stand on its own. After returning from an outing and removing the brooch, it quietly resides as a small piece on your desk or shelf. Time for wearing and time for placing. It's a brooch that suits both occasions.

To wear jewelry like gifting words, and to quietly conceal important keywords from within yourself at your chest. The soft gleam of brass blends with clothes of any color while quietly leaving its silhouette. On days when you wear TYPO, you might find yourself looking forward to conversations with others just a little bit more than usual.
