Intrepid student in Tehran, Iran

Above: Via the Khatt Network, a poster by Omid Hamooni developed in a course taught by Mehdi Saeedi in Tehran. The focus is the work of the great calligrapher and graphic designer, Mohammed Ehsai (linked here to Rene Wanner’s Posterpage). Omid writes that he is trying to capture the idiosyncratic signature and noteworthy red, apparently a strong presence in much of Ehsai’s work. Omid also sent along many helpful links, including the fascinating typography (dot) ir.

Honto ni, mamnoon am, Omid!
