Concept: 

Stigma on mental health.

Brief: 

Mental Health carries a huge stigma that needs to be addressed in order to help to erase it.

Execution: 

Series of experiments around this concept that ended on the creation of the Stigma Typeface.

This typeface plays with negative space and distortion of reality caused by the stigma on each individual suffering from mental health.

The design combines two current typefaces and plays with one of the definitions first definitions of stigma: "via Latin from Greek stigma ‘a mark made by a pointed instrument, a dot".
