Share your own geometric letterform!

To start, do some research to find structural and stylistic references for the type of letterform you want to create, noting specifically what you like about them and want to bring into your work. (Feel free to download Evgeniya’s structural and stylistic references to get you started!)

Then, use a construction grid to start sketching out different possibilities for your letterform. You can create your own grid if you like, or use one of Evgeniya’s templates.

Then you can start playing around in Illustrator to develop your letterform and quickly play with lots of variations.

Ready to turn your ideas into a final design? Watch Evgeniya’s full class on creating geometric, grid-based designs in Illustrator for all the tools you’ll need.

Whatever stage you get to, please share your work in the project gallery—or show us the full process of developing your letterform.
