BodyType is a joint collaboration between design studios Smart Head and Red Keds, providing an interactive script that has been created, literally, from the bodies of people.
Every letter is a short video, on which you can see naked people getting very intimate! The project began in January 09, and has since created over 90,000 e-cards.
To create a naughty e-card, navigate to the website, type your text. The website then displays the BodyType font, and you can embed the sexually explicit font into your website, art, or whatever you like!
The trend of using nude bodies to form letters of the alphabet, has its origins from the 1970’s, when Dutch designer Anton Beeke orchestrated the first nude ladies alphabet font.
