It's time for our Motion Design Monday. Today we bring to you a beautiful animation titled Okomito with the type design created by Hanken Design Co and the animation and illustrations by Jesper Bolther.
Okomito is a sans serif inspired by the classic typefaces that were imbued with a sense of functionality, boldness and industrial strength. The animated version aims to blend a quick, explosive expression with a soft and wavy feel. It includes the entire family of 9 weights and styles. Simply use the built-in dropdown to select your favorite weight. It's a beautiful motion design piece, definitely worth checking it out.
I'm a Brazilian product designer based in Oakland, California currently working for Google as a Staff Designer. I am also the founder of Abduzeedo, an award-winning digital publication about design and a personal project that has become the source of inspiration for millions of designers and enthusiasts.
Alex Diaconu shared a beautiful motion design project on his Behance profile. The project is titled "Icons", and it is a collection of iconic and very recognizable patterns like brands morphed into abstract motion forms.
Motion design is taking over and my prediction is that in a short period of time it will be a required skill for any visual designer or perhaps any product designer.
Andrew Hawryluk shared the motion design work done for SHOWTIME is an anime short film set in a dystopian cyberpunk setting and an original IP created by Maciej Kuciara.
The 36 Days of Type is probably my favorite design challenge and there are a few reasons for that.
