The White Stripes - Lettering Project

Throughout their entire discography, The White Stripes were always a brilliantly consistent band.

From their early beginnings they set their own limits and wrote rock songs that were obsessively stripped down to its three most basic elements: melody, rhythm and lyrics (or guitar, drums and voice), even though they were capable of doing much more.

And in terms of visuals, they always kept it as simple as black-red-white. From album covers to their own clothing: the number three, the colours and the "back to basics" mantra were all fundamental and strongly embraced by both Jack and Meg White.

In this project, I tried to capture that conceptual consistency from a lettering point of view. And I did so by keeping it simple yet intricate, just like their songwriting.
