Alphamix is a typographic project by Mirko Camia, an Italian designer. Each letter is sculpted and modelled after the first object its shape brought to mind, so the alphabet reads as a set of things rather than signs.
An A burns as a candle on a purple ground: pale wax, a lit wick, a used match below it. A B, on red, is clear glass packed with faceted orange shapes, a few of them spilled at its foot.
