This is a designer called Sarah A. King (www.sarahaking.com) and it really encapsulates exactly what i imagine everytime Fred says "type and image" because it is literaly. type and image. Or more precisely, type IN image, or even type AS image. most of her work is black and white, or generally 1 colour plus stock, and the major contributor to the overall image is the thickness of the type.
Some of it includes small images...
Some is pure text to form the image....
What i like about this one is the use of negative space. even in such a small area as the windmills.
Now the type in this has less to do with the overall image in terms of building the image like the Barack Obama one, but its the content of the type that links it to the image. There seems to be, visually, little reason why certain words are highlighted or stand out, other than aesthetically, but it works.
Look at the little cubes!! Its a cube of cubes!! Look closely...
