This exhibition showcased Hadids sketches and paintings that illustrates and gives the viewer an understanding of her influences and thought process. Hadi used paintings and drawings as a design tool and abstraction to imagine her architectural proposals.
What is so amazing about these paintings and drawings is her use of perspective combined with abstract composition. Through her manipulation of perspectives, we see structures coming from all angles that are abstract on first glances but as the viewer looks into these painted forms, we see Hadids brilliant use of perspective to create mind bending structures.
Her use of perspective got me thinking of Microsoft's HoloLens unique AR experience for the iOS app Typography Insight that is a toolkit for learning and teaching typography. In this unique version, typography can be manipulated to create 'structures', bending our own perspective of how typography can be represented. This app is a refreshing and inventive way of teaching audiences on type.
The HoloLens version introduces 'Type Playground' where user can place text in real environments with varying types and sizes. In ‘Type Anatomy’ scene, users can learn about basic terminologies of typography. In ‘Historical Types’ scene, users can learn about historically important typefaces in 3D space.
This point is best explained through the video below.
