diese arbeiten sind mir gestern über den weg gelaufen.
der umgang mit farbe und typo und die schlichte präsentation gefallen mir sehr gut.

i don't like mondays

gestern war wieder einer der tage die in nullkommanix das angenehme wochenende vergessen lassen.
der rechner stürzt mehrmals ab und hindert mich daran zügig zu arbeiten und über das telefon kommen ständig änderungswünsche die einen entwurf nicht gerade zum vorteil verändern.

i accidently found this site S FONTS TYPE FOUNDRY while searching for "VEB" at google.
nice page - nice fonts

victory?

"Plazm completes comprehensive corporate type identity for Nike. Victory font in use globally. Twenty variations of a type family. Eighteen months in the making."

hm. a big step in type history? 18 months in the making? i think that some things in this font do not look right...

why not

*rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr*
fucking good stuff (as mostly always) and a beautifully designed book too.
no wonder that they did not find the time to update their website.

btw. i stumbled over this
and i wonder why they choose such a "sold out" design that you can find nearly anywhere
f.e. here and there

fontlab illustrated

fontlab recommends it and i've ordered a copy-
the new book by leslie cabarga called "learn fontlab fast". maybe this is my start into the software which i bought over 2 years ago, but never used it (i still stuck @ fontographer).
