research topic- typography as art or imagery

Classifying typography as a piece of art or an imagery.

when typography becomes a form of art, imagery and design. it can function, express and become visible!! [typoase sans] installation for public spacebolzano, 2007 by Dominik Schwarz is one example I found that can be seen as challenging the traditional views of the purpose of typography as typography collaborates to furniture design within space and time.

This designer has made a typographic installation to be able in delivering his message of space, time and signs through the public, having to be expressive as possible, he designed a multifuntion piece of typographic furniture in the public spaces where people can gather around to communicate.
