PrEP by Frank Ocean

Frank Ocean organized a series of events loosely based on the theme of 80s club culture and named after PrEP, a preventive aids medicine. At the core of the visuals was the custom typography consisting of a soft bubble interior and a hard-edged outer core. The letterings had to contain enough visual energy to live on large placements, such as a poster, or in miniature contexts, like record labels.
