kingdom

Its been a month since there is no hustle on my blog spot. I didn't have my kit to produce these ambigrams as i was away from my home town.

Today i have got a new ambigram and a non-contemporary design that suits the word.

I was just about to make an ambigram and i was searching for a potential word and i came across the word 'kingdom'. This is a very common word and most of the people would be aware of its meaning. For the people who aren't familiar with the meaning, which is a distinct possibility,Kingdom means a land or a region owned by a king or queen.

This design evolved completely on the computer. I would like to owe it to dafont.com from whom i got the idea of this design.

Here if u see the words 'k' and 'i' fit well to produce a 'm'. 'o' can be used as a 'n'. Now the real deal here is all about the word 'g' and 'd'. I just mapped 'g' to 'd'. I was actually skeptical about the understanding of the ambigram as these two letters are the center pieces of the word.

An ambigram revolves around the center letter or letters. They are the corner stones for understanding of the ambigram. So here it was important to use the words 'g' and 'd' carefully.

As this word is medieval i wanted to give the design a different touch. The letters are artistic and they define the word well.

Jo.. i really admire the way you write your blog these days, not just the ambigram but the text supporting its creation seems to be of the same caliber of the design. :) :)..
