A monumental family from Hoefler & Co, a casual sans by Type Supply, a seaworthy display from Kyle
Wayne Benson, a ferry inspired face by Letters from Sweden, an extensive script family from Martina Flor, a strong grotesk by The Northern Block, a functional slab from ReType, and a bright iconset by Symbolset.
Amidst the excitement caused by the successful launch of the public beta of the new FontShop website I would like to quickly announce my Minneapolis Mini-Tour next week – very bummed I am missing the terrific TYPO San Francisco “Rhythm” though. I have been invited by AIGA Minnesota to be a judge for their Design Show 2014 on April 9 and 10. Because I am coming over anyway I offered Craig Eliason to speak at the local Type Tuesdays on April 8, and also volunteered for a CreativeMornings talk on April 11. Whatever little free time is left I will try to visit local type designers and foundries like Mark Simonson Studio, Process Type Foundry, Font Diner, Teeline Fonts, … Come over to any or all of these events to hear me talk about type, typography and design, and say hello!
We can gleefully declare our long awaited release is finally here! And what an interesting one it has turned out to be.
We welcome newcomer FF Antithesis from young German designer Yanone, an incredible extension for Łukasz Dziedzic’s FF Good and a reorganisation of Jürgen Huber’s FF Ginger Flamboyant.
Font Men is a short film about the work of Jonathan Hoefler and Tobias Frere-Jones, who collectively ran the most successful and well respected type design studio in the world. Produced before their recent and very public split, the film provides a rare glimpse into the forces that brought them together and the successful empire they built together.
