Wall Words Catalog 2010-11 : IFCA Passion for I Typography ’ve always loved the written word. I love the shape and grace of text. How wonderful that the same word can look so different but mean the same thing from one font to the next. Words can become both symbols and a form of art. Expressive phrases allow you to share with others inspiring, thought-provoking, humorous or reflective sentiments. Words convey your intellect, your philosophy, and can even serve as a window to your soul. I’m a graphic designer who used to hand-letter and paint signs early in my career, before computers became such a common tool in the design field. I also used to enjoy hand-lettering quotations and painting murals on the walls of my home. But in 1998, while painting a long quote by Yeats (and tottering on a stepladder all the while) I found the work agonizingly slow and I couldn’t manage to finish. In eight months I had painted only five words. I had a wonderful old print from the 1800’s which matched the quote beautifully, and I was ee hang it and complete words, but there alway seemed to be something else competing for my time.

It took two of us a little more than an hour to install the 12 decals to the wall (12’ ceiling) and it went really, really well. The quality of your materials made this possible. Thanks for working with Brandi to accommodate our fonts. I look forward to using your service again and recommending Wall Words to others. Ashley Breidenbach, Director of Marketing, MOTO Franchise Corporation, Dayton, OH After a lot of procrastination and consternation, I typeset the quote on the computer and had vinyl letters created from my digital file. Almost a year after starting and stopping this project, the entire vinyl quote took me twenty minutes to install, even though it traveled across three walls. People think it’s been hand-painted, but the truth is it was quick and easy to apply. I found this process so satisfying and easy to complete that I now make economical decorative lettering readily available to everyone.
