Gallery of Decay
a code-based typographic system that simulates the behavior of five organisms associated with decomposition which translates biological processes into generative letterforms. The project treats type not as static shapes but as living structures that evolve, spread, erode, and transform over time. Each specimen captures a distinct mode of decay such as linear expansion, cellular division, spore dispersal—allowing typography to behave like matter in flux rather than fixed form.
