The strong grid accentuates the photos, and the bold, vibrant green color scheme is a nod to the scientific and artistic nature of his images.
Central to spencerlowell.com is the bespoke, modular typeface LD_SPENCER_LOWELL, engineered to mirror Spencer’s precise, scientific photographic style. Its angular, geometric letterforms—each module crafted with exacting proportions—create a rigid yet flexible framework that underpins every page. The sharp, interlocking shapes not only reinforce the site’s underlying grid but also echo the structural clarity of Spencer’s images, ensuring that text and photography coalesce into a unified, rigorously balanced visual experience.
The stationary was an extension of the website.
LD_SPENCER_LOWELL is a unique custom stencil type specifically used throughout Spencer Lowell's site. The type choices and structured grid system all help reflect the scientific approach to Spencer's photography.
