Object Typeface

A glyph is a hieroglyphic symbol that signifies the signifier. The glyphs in 'Object typeface' are a collection of symbols from the shadows of three objects (a paper cup, a paper ball and a plastic bottle) in various angles. The glyph would not function without the object, neither does the other way around.
