normally, the thick and thin strokes of a typeface make sense because they relate back to calligraphy and the act of holding and writing with a pen. here, the thick and thin strokes make a whole different kind of sense and it is quite pleasant to look at.
The cover for Argentine rock band G.I.T.’s second album (1985) featured belts (actually, two of them look like wristwatches!) spelling the initials of the band members’ last names (Guyot, Iturri, Toth)... The results are not as pretty as Alessandro’s image, though. :-)
