6-Style Playbook For Letter I
Each style keeps the same base structure but changes rhythm, mass, and finish.

Tag/Handstyle
Letter IFast signature rhythm with minimal structure noise.
Do: Keep one confident vertical stroke and a light cap or entry so I feels intentional instead of accidental.
Avoid: Avoid flourishes on both ends; too much decoration makes I disappear beside neighboring letters.
Open Tag/Handstyle
Throw-up
Letter IInflated silhouette built for speed and impact.
Do: Use one fat central stem with simple top and bottom weight so I stays readable even when puffed.
Avoid: Avoid swelling both ends into separate blobs; too much bulb weight makes I look like a dumbbell.
Open Throw-up
Bubble
Letter IRounded forms that are forgiving but still need clean counters.
Do: Round the stem evenly and keep top and bottom terminals modest so the simple form stays clean.
Avoid: Avoid oversized highlights or heavy side shadow; extra effects overwhelm the narrow letter.
Open Bubble
Blockbuster
Letter IStraight-edged volume for wall coverage and distance readability.
Do: Build one narrow rectangular stem with controlled top and bottom caps so I holds distance readability.
Avoid: Avoid making the bar too thin for the wall scale; a weak center stroke disappears from far away.
Open Blockbuster
Wildstyle
Letter IInterlocks and directional energy built on a stable base skeleton.
Do: Lock a plain I skeleton first, then add one controlled extension while keeping the main vertical dominant.
Avoid: Avoid turning both ends into arrows; too many points erase the I read immediately.
Open Wildstyle
3D
Letter IDepth and extrusion that require strict edge discipline.
Do: Extrude one firm slab on a short depth axis and keep the painted shadow attached tightly to the stem.
Avoid: Avoid deep tunnel projection or detached side shadow; they make the simple I feel computer-rendered.
