There are lovely examples of how to use typography in advertising to full effect. I think type used in clever and unique ways, like above can be far more effective, iconic and thought provoking than any image.

Looks nice! i think some people take typography for granted. We see it so often that we don’t realize it really is a skill and an art. Please check out my blog too. We are having a contest that you may be interested in.

This is another great collection! I think people often over look typography… Even though in my opinion its one of the hardest aspects of design to master, I also don’t think enough emphasis is put on typography in colleges and uni’s. And the serif is the new black!… Believe!

You’ll probably need to contact the Advertising Agency that created the ad. The Instant Noodles ad was developed at DDB New Zealand by executive creative director Toby Talbot, deputy creative director/creative Regan Grafton, deputy creative director Bridget Taylor, creatives Carlos Savage, Damian Galvin, art director Mike Davison, senior account director Andrew Stephenson, senior account manager Joni Rogers, typographer/creative designer Karla Burke, typesetter Tara McLeod.

Good luck in finding your font!
