Ambigram – Bongga
Here’s another design for my Proud to be Pinoy series. I wanted to create some ambigrams for some Pinoy words. I have made Maldito and Maldito previously. Here is a design for Bongga. How do you translate Bongga in English?
I used a different font for the design. I dont think an English font would work well. This is like a retro inspired font and design. Bongga makes me think of song Bongga ka Day. Thus it has that retro and disco fever appeal.
The B-A inversion had several changes to make it readable. I know from the start that it is possible but making it readable and harmonious was a challenge. The GG part went well and looks pretty consistent with the overall design. But it took me several hours to make the right combination.
As a shirt, it looks good. But we’re still finding time to market it. Its toxic at work and I’m finishing some more designs for my other clients. I though I could produce the shirts last month but I guess I have to delay it until next month again. Having a sideline can be stressful too.
