MyABC – Instagram Challenge

We are surrounded by letters, and not just ones designed by typographers but also those that exist in everyday life. If we look a little closer, we can find the familiar forms of the ABCs everywhere – in a crack in the wall, the curve of a railing, or in a cloud formation. The framework of a table might suddenly look like an X, a round window becomes an O ... The Buchstabenmuseum Berlin and the Bauhaus-Archiv / Museum für Gestaltung invited you to explore your surroundings and take photos of these unnoticed alphabets of daily life.

Until 22 April you could submit one or more letters to our challenge using the hashtag #myabc2021. The jury has chosen the winners based on the originality of the images and the aesthetic quality of the photos.

The type designer Ulrike Rausch has designed the MyABC font on the basis of the 26 winning letters. The font can be downloaded here for free for Windows and MacOS. Enjoy!
