I love this biblically-based set of designs called “Word.”
It’s from designer Jim LePage and he explained it like this:
Basically, Word is a series where I create original designs for each book of the Bible. Before each design, I spend time researching the book, finding out the themes, historical context, weirdest stories, etc. I also scan through parts of the book looking for a passage or story that could translate into a cool design. Each design isn’t meant to completely represent the book, rather it is merely based on a passage from the book.

I am very sad to say I don’t recall seeing any of these amazing murals in person when I lived in Philly. I never took the EL that far west. Boo. These are really spectacular though… check out the full listing, there are about 20+ pictures of the murals.
