Type Camp
5 Oct 2009 | 7:49 pmBy Jessica R. Yurasek Let’s face it, most of the general public does not really understand typography. So when I first tell people that I attended something called ‘Type Camp’ this summer, I tend to garner a lot of puzzled looks. But, smiling bemusedly, the typographic outsider with whom I am conversing, is likely to then ask a question not so far off from my own the first time I heard about Type Camp: what, exactly, do you do there? Well, explore typography, of course. I signed up for Type Camp not quite knowing what to expect, but I knew one thing for certain: that the past… -

[insert superlatives here] Would be great to see a few more weights added. She’s condensed without feeling cramped, and described by its makers as a compact and sporty sans serif that’s disarming instead of pushy — not just loud, but persuasive. Erik Spiekermann remarked on twitter, finally an answer to Compacta! Much needed. Absolutely! In my own work, I can see Tungsten singing alongside something like Logo Jnr Black. If only Tungsten had been drawn before the release of… -
Nineteenth Century Designers & Engravers of Type
8 Sep 2009 | 5:42 pmReviewed by James Puckett “The truth of the terse but expressive ‘dead and forgotten’, comes home with peculiar force to the searcher after information about the individuals who have developed the art and craft of typefounding.” – William E. Loy The Industrial Revolution is often seen as a black hole in the history of typography. In that era the role of the punchcutter changed to that of a largely uncredited factory worker. Records of who worked on individual typefaces are sparse. Today it can seem as if there is practically no information left about the designers of the nineteenth…

Titles & End Credits
3 Nov 2009 | 7:40 amChanging fashions in movie titles are one of the richest veins in typography’s fossil record. On his website, graphic designer Christian Annyas has put together a nice collection of movie title stills — both opening and end credits — offering a handy synopsis of twentieth century lettering. Rather than an exhaustive survey, Annyas has curated a small and personal collection that’s conveniently organized by decade: dipping into any period offers a convenient way of getting a taste for the lettering of the era. Keep an eye out for “in-camera” lettering, in which lettering is… -

Teens, Typography, and Tim Gunn
12 Oct 2009 | 4:30 am“Designers…” I knew I wanted to work with typography by the time I turned eleven. Back then, my curiosity about letter-making could only be satisfied in oblique and solitary ways, most of which involved borrowed sheets of Presstype, and goofing off with the family typewriter. The Macintosh couldn’t have come soon enough. Young typophiles today have more outlets for their enthusiasm (you are here), but next Monday will gain rare access to the profession as well: National Design Week begins October 18, when the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum will inaugurate the festivities with… -
New Fonts: A Graphic Designer’s Perspective
30 Sep 2009 | 11:00 amMost graphic designers choose the fonts that best fit their projects. Brian Hennings does the opposite: he chooses the projects that best fit the fonts. A resident designer at H&FJ, Brian shares with me the responsibility of creating all of the sample art you’ll find on this site. His is a strange universe of the fictitious: signage programs for mythical cities, book jackets for unwritten novels, product literature for items you cannot buy, broadcast graphics for live sporting events that you can’t quite identify. (They might have a ball, horses, cars, rifles, or all of the above.) His… -
TUNGSTEN: A New Font Family from H&FJ.
16 Sep 2009 | 5:00 amTypeface: Tungsten A few years ago, we started wondering if there was a way to make a flat-sided sans serif that was disarming instead of brutish, one that employed confidence and subtlety instead of just raw testosterone. It was an unusual design brief for ourselves, completely without visual cues and trading in cultural associations instead: “more Steve McQueen than Steven Seagal,” reads one note; “whiskey highball, not a martini” suggests another. The result is Tungsten®, a tight family of high-impact fonts in four weights: muscular and persuasive, without sacrificing wit,…

Gestalten is known for very contemporary designs — the modular and the post-mod — so this tribute to the 18th century is quite a departure. Designed by Matthieu Cortat of Switzerland, Bonesana was initially developed for the new edition of the book “On Crimes and Punishment” written by the Italian philosopher Cesare Bonesana in the late 1700s. A family optimized for book text, there are oldstyle, lining, proportional, and tabular figures, small caps, and italics, but there is no… -

Marlene
22 Apr 2009 | 1:17 pmMarlene is an elegant, high contrast Egyptian face with a distinctive and contemporary calligraphic flourish. When I first saw it I was impressed at how incredibly crisp it was, as if drawn with a pen so sharp it could just as easily cut the paper as leave ink there. The italic expresses this sharpness with a wonderful sense of speed; those beautiful thin upstrokes and unusually high connection points of the bowls on a, g and y, and the standout exuberance of the k feel as if it can’t wait to get you moving on to the next letter, with the stark horizontal of the terminal serif seemingly… -
Archer
22 Apr 2009 | 4:28 amA slew of slab serifs were released in 2008. Most of them continuing last year’s trend of following the cute and chunky approach, often to delicious effect. But as marvelous as so many of those slab serifs were, sadly they were let down when it came to lighter, or more usable text weights. For me, it is Archer that stood out, with H&FJ concentrating on the lighter half of the spectrum, eight weights offering a delightful range of contrast, but never venturing heavier than bold. Making a text face distinctive with a clear personality that can scale right up to display sizes is a mammoth… -

I support this format and plan to allow my distributors to license WOFF fonts to customers. At this point, Firefox is the only browser to support this format, so it’s not quite ready for prime-time yet. But there is a lot of support for this in the font industry, and hopefully the other major browser makers, Apple and Microsoft, will join in soon. -

Wayfinding observations: Landmarks and cardinal directions
When we come to a new city we build a cognitve map to represent this city in our minds. Unless you have photographic memory such cognitve maps work differently from topographic maps. They don’t consist of exact representations and distances, but are driven by landmarks and the paths that connect them. A landmark can be anything that clearly stands out from its environment, like a tower or a church. But one of the most important landmarks are rivers that divide a city. London is divided by the Thames, Paris by the Seine and Vienna by the Danube. Last week I visited Vienna for the first time… -
Designing the ultimate wayfinding typeface
Over the last couple of years I have researched the design and use of typefaces used for signage, especially road signage. While road signs in general are scientifically researched for many decades in western countries, little is known about the parameters that lead to a maximum legibility of typefaces used in signage. And therefore the range of typefaces used on road signs is pretty wide. We see geometric typefaces… Road Sign Poland …slanted serif typefaces… Road Sign Luxembourg …and many old and modern sans-serif typefaces… Netherlands (ANWB-Uu by Gerard Unger) But which ones are… -
Why webfont services are the future of fonts on the web
The debate about webfonts just reached its peak at a panel discussion on this year’s TypeCon conference. (You can listen to the 2 hours audio at Typographica and read summaries at i love typography and NiceWebType.) The discussion left a lot of people puzzled about how the future of fonts on the web might look like. Here is my outlook … As a type and web designer, webfonts were always of great interest to me. As a type designer I was shocked, when Safari started to support linking TrueType and OpenType fonts (now usually called “raw fonts” in this context) with Safari 3.1 in march… -

Emily Weldon, the cobbler’s daughter of eighteen, meets Mr Brown while delivering a new pair of shoes. Before long, Emily is assisting in the shop, and soon falls hopelessly in love. With such a vast difference in age, they are hardly an appropriate match. Perusing an old book of Ancient Remedies to learn of love potions, Emily prays they can be…

New Faces in Washington
28 Oct 2009 | 6:09 amLast week the venerable Washington Post unveiled its new design, eight months in the making. More a “tweak” than an extreme makeover, the redesign was accomplished by an in-house team in collaboration with Roger Black and his studio. Charles Apple presents a very thorough review of the newspaper’s structural and design changes on his Visual Editors blog, including ample links to other sources and a PDF of The Post’s own special section detailing the changes. The obvious change to The Post’s body copy font gets noted in several articles. But some of the more… -
From Boston to Mexico City
22 Oct 2009 | 12:56 pmPacking is almost done. My presentation is saved in about 40 different formats and 8 different places (one can never be too careful). Before I am technically awake on Sunday morning, I’ll be getting on a plane bound for Mexico City. I’m excited, and I can barely wait for ATypI: The Heart of the Letter to begin. This promises to be one compelling conference. Web fonts are on top of everyone’s mind. David Berlow will be speaking about his experience with developing them in relation to designing agate fonts. Attendees will get a rare glimpse into the workings of his innovative… -
moving type!
20 Oct 2009 | 10:58 amI sent Brent Barson an email to tell him how much I enjoyed the opening titles for the fifth Typophile Film Festival made by him and his students. It happens to feature Scout and Dispatch but for me that was just a bonus. The animation is really amazing. Barson replied that it turns out Scout and Dispatch were just asking to be cut out of wood, metal, and plexiglass. Who knew? Christian Schwartz’s handsome Farnham also shows up, among others. Scout also shows up in the inimitable Laurie Rosenwald’s animated chaos. Keep your eyes peeled for Loupot, me and Laurie’s collaborative… -

How We Read
10 Sep 2009 | 11:31 amA common maxim among type designers is that drawing a typeface isn’t about drawing beautiful letters: drawing a typeface is about making beautiful words. A typeface is a collection of separate parts that have to work together in every possible combination to form unified words. Words can be very different from each other. A word can be as short as a single letter, or a word can be incredibly long. A word can be all lowercase letters, or a word can be all uppercase letters. A word might be a combination of both upper and lowercase letters. A word can include punctuation, like a hyphen or an…

Germany’s FH Wiesbaden gets new name
27 Oct 2009 | 5:09 amBack in 2001–2002, while I was finishing up my BFA at RISD, I spent a semester abroad at the Fachhochschule Wiesbaden, a large-ish University of Applied Sciences in Wiesbaden, Germany. The German-language blog Design Tagebuch (design diary) reports that this university has gotten a new name: the institution is now going to be know as the Hochschule RheinMain. Total bullocks! While I think that the new school logo is an improvement (the old logo looked like the US state of Texas with a hat on it), I find the name “Hochschule RheinMain” rather pompous. In Germany’s… -
Malabar claims German Design Prize Gold
23 Oct 2009 | 4:32 amThis year’s German Design Prize jury has selected my Malabar typeface as one of ten works from across the nation to received the coveted design prize of the Federal Republic of Germany in gold. In June, the German Federal Ministry of Economic and Technology nominated my Malabar typeface for the 2010 German Design Prize. The design prize of the Federal Republic of Germany is the country’s highest distinction in the field of design. No other design award sets such strict criteria on entries.

14 Oct 2009 | 3:59 amRob and Sonja Keller like to do things differently. For years, Rob Keller’s personal blog, youshouldliketypetoo, has followed the beat of its own drummer. The layout, color scheme, and navigation system do not look like those of a standard weblog, whether one thinks of the online typorati landscape or not. The Kellers’ first joint publication, TypeNews.net, also has its own look and quirks; I don’t see any stylistic resemblance to other popular type information sites, like iLT, TypeDaily, Typographica, or Typophile. Now the Keller duo has officially entered the type business… -
Dmig2 published! (Read the HTML version)
8 Sep 2009 | 11:44 pmYears ago, in what seems to have been a time before the German type blogs Slanted and FontBlog were born, I recall often visiting a site called Design Made in Germany. Under the motto “German design is gray,” this site offered users a reduced, simple interface, as well as lively discussion. It was not unique on my radar; the two German type fora Typografie.info and TypeForum were great sites to visit as well. But dmig did occasionally have interesting type and font-related threads. At some point, the site disappeared into the ether, but I never seemed to notice. Slanted had become…

TIPO releases Loreto
30 Oct 2009 | 8:26 amTypo is proud to announce the release of a new font family “Loreto” This font gets its inspiration from the typography of the Manuale ad Usum (1721), printed by Jesuit missionaries who worked at the beginning of the XVIII century with communities of “Guaraná” native indians from the Northeast region of Argentina. It is a manual of sacraments published by Paulo Restivo and some collaborators among the native population. This manual features the peculiarity of being the first printed piece where there is a record of the place where it was printed: at the Loreto mission. -

Map Cuts
1 Nov 2009 | 6:13 amJust a little heads-up on these cutout maps by Karen O’Leary — I think they’re lovely. There’s more info on her Etsy page and here on The Jailbreak, where I found the link. O’Leary has done Paris and New York, and is planning to do London. She says she’ll take commissions for other cities too, so get in there fast if you want one as they obviously take a while to do and I think she’ll be quite busy for a while.

The site will require you to install Silverlight, but is fairly well put together and easy to use, with a nice contents feature that also lists the ads and a search function that works well. If you need to be reminded that Playboy magazine contains a few pictures here and there of ladies in provocative poses with few clothes on, then consider yourself reminded — for… -
