I pride myself on being very detailed-oriented, which is why design suits me so well (or so I’d like to think!). Perfect kerning makes me inexplicably happy, and sometimes the delicate swash of the letter makes me lose my train of thought. Behold Cameron Moll, a Utah man with a godly attention to detail.

Basically, this poster makes me drool. Click on the photos for oh-so-necessary close-ups of this typographic representation of the Salt Lake Temple in Salt Lake City, Utah.

This thing is handcrafted and apparently took over 100 hours to make. ONE HUNDRED HOURS?!?! Makes my all-nighters at the graphics lab seem like child’s play. But 100 hours seems to be an okay price to pay if THIS is the final product.

Excuse me, I think I’m gonna need a minute. If you want to check out some more super sexy detail shots of this piece, click here. It’s definitely worth your time.
