Introducing Adobe Creative Resident Rosa Kammermeier
We're excited to share our next Adobe Creative Resident of 2017, the talented Rosa Kammermeier. We posted about the overarching Adobe Creative Residency Program yesterday in case you need to catch up on the phenomenal endeavor by Adobe to support the creative class in pursuing dream projects. How amazing would it be to focus ONE WHOLE YEAR on a passion project and have it creatively and financially supported by Adobe? Not to mention, each resident is paired with an amazing mentor. In Rosa's case, it's the uber accomplished Berlin-based lettering designer & author Martina Flor. Enter the heartwarming work of Rosa Kammermeier. Rosa is a graphic designer and lettering artist from Munich, Germany. Her "heart" project for the residency is the WALK OF HAPPINESS in which she’ll be hand lettering slogans of positivity and happiness on shop windows creating a city treasure hunt. Her messages will be linked and made accessible on a city map and on a website creating an artistic tour of sorts for all to enjoy and discover. Rosa hopes to capture the attention of people in their daily, consumer-oriented lives and make them stop, smile and think while discovering new aspects and areas of their city. She wants to challenge herself to improve her own skills while thinking and driving impact on a bigger scale.

Lettering Design with Kyle Letendre
Nothing is more refreshing than a dose of lettering design that is quite awesome, inspiring and playful to look at. Well, this is exactly what Chicago-based freelance lettering artist/designer Kyle Letendre has done and it's stunning! First comment is that I love his colour palette on this project was he recalled them to be various pieces of lettering from the past year or so. It kind of reminded me of the colours from the biru brand Sapporo, don't you think? I just liked the variety of different styles included in this collection, quite impressive.

Lettering Experiments with Ricardo Gonzalez
Here on Abduzeedo, we love to make you guys explore and discover different mediums that are from user interface design to typography. Let's also admit that about 3-4 years ago, there wasn't that much interest in UI, UX and its complexity.
