Under a popular Instagram hashtag #36daysoftype, creative artist Shaivalini Kumar illustrated the beauty of sisterhood using the letters of the alphabet. She crafted a little story around each letter and her work is incredibly wholesome.

β€œ36 Days of sisterhood is a typography fueled exploration of the weird and wonderful things that many long distance relationships are made of. Separated by several time zones and thousands of miles from family and loved ones, we decided to celebrate the many small ways in which we still stay connected to each other,” she wrote in an Instagram post.

Philadelphia-based artist and illustrator Noah Camp has made a name for himself with amazing 3D lettering and typography works that have landed him gigs with the likes of FOX, BBC, Entertainment Weekly and many others. When he is not working with high-profile companies, however, Camp creates fun illustrations that he shares with his social media followers. His latest project: alphabet inspired by your favorite ’90s toys.

In a series of works, titled “90s Toypography,” Camp mixes nostalgia with his love for typography, and shapes toys into letters. What makes his effort really impressive is that each toy-letter is inspired by the iconic pop culture work which name starts with that letter. For example, J is made out of numerous Jenga bricks while letter N is made to look like a Nintendo Entertainment System console.

“It’s time to dig out your best pair of JNCOs, put your crystal Pepsi on ice, and join me on a trip down memory lane,” says Camp on his website. “36 Days of Type 2019 is all about your favorite childhood toys from the 90s. ’90s Toypography’ is going to make you nostalgic for a time when Blockbuster was alive, Sun-In was all the rage, and hacky sack was cool.”

Check out “90s Toypography” photo and video works below.

K is for Koosh Ballβ € 90s TOYpographyβ € β € The Koosh Ball, the crazy looking ball once described as a "cross between a porcupine and a bowl of Jell-O,” is made of of more than 2000 rubber filaments. Scott Stillinger was inspired to invent the Koosh in 1986 when he was having trouble teaching his two young kids how to play catch.β € β € Stillinger showed a prototype of the ball made of rubber bands to his brother-in-law, Mark Button, who’d worked in marketing at Mattel. The menβ€”and their wivesβ€”were confident enough in the product to quit their jobs and start a toy company called OddzOn Products.Β Stillinger built the machine that would make the balls and operated it out of a barn near his house.β € β € The media made fun of the Koosh at first, thinking it would flop. But in the end, those reactions didn’t matter much. The Koosh ball hit shelves in 1987, and by 1988, the ball was a Christmastime bestseller. The next year, it was inΒ 14,000 toy storesΒ across the country and available in 20 countries around the world.Β β € β € I loved Koosh for being the inside-the-house playing ball, even though my parents didn’t know this. I loved them for juggling, playing indoor basketball, and for lots of complicated games my brothers and I concocted with totally arbitrary rules. β € β € @36daysoftype #36days_k #36daysoftype06 #36daysoftype #90stoypography #koosh #hasbro #36days_Adobe #contestβ € β € #3dtype #typography #3dillustration #cinema4d #36daysoftype_adobe #retrogaming #vintage #90s #retro #oldschool #90skid #90skids #1990s #nostalgia #90svintage #90snostalgia #childhoodtoys #toy #toys #toycollector #boardgames #memorylane

N is for Nintendo β € 90s TOYpographyβ € β € Here are some fun facts I found about Nintendo:β € β € -Nintendo is more than 100 years old.

BeforeΒ that, within Nintendo he was just known as Ossan, which means "middle-aged guy." The name Mario came from Nintendo's Brooklyn factory landlord.β € β € -In real life, Mario'sΒ jumpΒ would be over 25 feet high.β € β € -TheΒ Konami codeΒ (up up down down left right left right B A start) was originally used to help programmers skip through the game. Now it's a huge part of pop culture.β € β € -The Legend of ZeldaΒ was the first console game that allowed you toΒ saveΒ your game.β € β € -The NES held the record for most console sales in historyΒ all the way through 2006,Β when Nintendo released the Wii.β € β € -My family's first Nintendo was not until the Nintendo64.

Artist Kelly Bell created this series of illustrations showing Game of Thrones characters in the style of famous writer and artist Edward Gorey. Kelly’s work is a tribute to Gorey’s morbid alphabet book The Gashlycrumb Tinies.

For every letter of the alphabet, there’s an illustrated character from popular HBO’s show. A is for Arya, B is for Bran, and so on. When read together, they make a poem that starts with:

β€œA is for Arya, lethal and small,

B is for Bran. Things began with a fall.

C is for Cersei and her horrible ways,

D is for Dany β€” her children ablaze!”

The Paper Artist CollectiveΒ (PAC) creates beautiful art pieces using only paper. Formed in 2015, they have today 100 members from 27 countries.Β  The daily operations of PAC is jointly led by Kristine Braanen & Samantha Quinn with the support from their incredible members.

Recently, the group challenged their members to create the whole alphabet, one unique paper letter after another. The 26 artists who joined didn’t know which color or letter they were going to work with before the paper package arrived at their doorsteps. Nevertheless, they loved the challenge and their outputs are just as wonderful.

The project is called #PACAlphabet and is sponsored by Senses Paper. Scroll down to see the beautiful paper letters.

Enough with the usual T as train and F as a flower: from now kids could learn the the alphabet with the icons of rock. This is the idea behind the book “Rock Alphabet” created by Andrew Morgan, who transforms great artists like David Bowie and Mick Jagger into colorful learning tools.

The book is described as a fun way to let the next generation of rockers discover the legends that have opened the doors: so Jimi Hendrix and his guitar become a J, Gene Simmons with his unfailing tongue helps to remember the G, and the thick hair of Tina Turner turns into a T, and ZZ top are the faces of the last letter of the alphabet.

Morgan also published a primer dedicated to rap stars; both books are sold with matching posters and t-shirts of buyer’s choice, and part of the proceeds go to music programs for young people.
