This Typography assignment is on syntax and semantics, or, how to interpret a word using only itself. They are basically design riddles to make everyone feel clever – some are definitely better than others, though. In keeping with the assignment, I’ve chosen only the two strongest to mat and turn in. Which two do you think are the best?

    Next to these totally cool examples, it’s you whom I see as clever…not me. I feel like I could never come up with these elegant expressions.

    My 2 choices: headache and…and…I just can’t choose!

    Nice… great guesses! Headache and counterfeit are the ones I turned in!
