Climate Change Is Here and Now
Expressing climate change through typography.
โClimate Change Is Here and Nowโ is a typographic-only series that highlights Coloradoโs record-breaking wildfiresโan urgent consequence of human-driven climate change. The design uses hand-lettered titles and pull quotes created with white charcoal, digitally manipulated to evoke a smoky, fading effect.
Gradients and fading typography symbolize the gradual deterioration of our planet, visually representing Earthโs fragility under environmental strain. The smoky textures and dissolving text create a haunting metaphor for the destruction caused by these wildfires.
By relying solely on typography, the spreads focus attention on the powerful message, stripping away distractions and urging readers to confront the immediacy of the climate crisis. This approach reinforces that climate change is not a distant threat but a present and devastating reality.
