Life is Short

Peter Rukavina

“Life is short,” wrote a friend in an email last week.

Typographic gears started to turn in my mind.

Which begat this.

Yellow ink with a splotch of red added in, creating an interesting shimmering effect. It’s off-putting to look at, which is the point.

Many Life is Short cards sitting out to try on a wooden table.

Now you need something along the "make it count" to tag along.
