Removed from the context of a flat surface with only x and y axes, and adding a z-index, letterforms become spatially dimensional. Forms within a three dimensional state are able to take on structural qualities, providing the ability for the form to be viewed and explored from a variety of angles — the form becomes navigable. 

In most instances, two dimensional letterforms are only able to give the appearance or illusion that their form is navigable. But what happens when a 2D form becomes physically navigable? In the case of the typographic hologram, there is an opportunity for this to happen in the two dimensional form. As the viewpoint or perspective of the viewer changes, the form also appears to change.
