Beautiful Memories of Your Life and Our World

Memory Box Creations

My Memory Boxes hang as art in your home. They express a nostalgia for Ontario’s past.

Each box is one of a kind:

  • different sizes
  • different contents
  • different frames

The use of dictionary pages that relate to the objects in this piece is a way to bring a typographic element into the design. The type on the pages relates to the type on the rulers. I used a strong horizontal shaped frame here to tie in with the rulers’ shapes and length. Horizontal lines here denote the stability and evenness of measuring and manufacturing. www.hatchdesign.ca/elements-of-design-part-1-line/#:~:text=Horizontal%20Line,to%20a%20particular%20focal%20point  I employed smaller round objects as a contrast to the rectangular shapes.
