deconstructing mickey mouse typo

Deconstructing
Mickey Mouse

As an investigation into the logographic qualities of cartoon characters, 48 people were asked to draw Mickey Mouse according to the image they had in their head. The result became a booklet that folds out into a poster.

The main text explores the bounderies of what a logo could be, i.e. the recognizability of people and objects as brands. A secondary text is a transcript of the Mickey Mouse Club March, a song that was sung in a television show called the Mickey Mouse Club, that featured during the ending of Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket.

It was conceived as part of a project called the Grey Press, which was a digital private press which tried to control as many element of the design process as possible. Both typefaces in this design were made for the Grey Press.

Dries Wiewauters about fonts

PDU

These fonts started out as a typographical experiment to see how the letters constructed with the Plaque Découpée Universelle would combine into words.

Multiple styles — see FRAGILE — were constructed: the original alphabet how F. A. David envisioned it, my “cleaned up” version, a more fascist version and a retro version. These different styles can be seen combined in Orale BBQ.

The stencil versions were commissioned by James Goggin for the signage system of Tutti a Tavola!, the opening event for the 2010 Milan Furniture Fair. This was a collaboration between Practise and David Kohn Architects.
