You may have seen our post on the origin of cool expressions (The Glossary of Cool). Well as a big fan of word play and etymology, I had to post The Project Twins’ artistic interpretations of unusual words. They have chosen one word for each letter creating a sort of weird version of the alphabet. These were originally exhibited at the MadArt Gallery Dublin during Design Week 2011. So here they are in their entirety:
