Typographic Brighton

I often take pictures of interesting type, signage & numerals. As most other designers I know, I have an unhealthy obsession with all things typographical. I started saving my images of type on flickr so they could be used as a public resource but wanted do do something more interesting with them. While playing around with google maps I thought creating a google map with my images of Brighton type would be an interesting proposition. Although there is no real use to my typographical map – I doubt anyone would really need to know the exact location of were I took a particular image – the typographical map does do one important job – it illustrates the varied and vast use of type that exists in our urban spaces.
