Julien, geometric display typeface
by Peter Biľak
We are pleased to present a new typeface — Julien. It’s a playful geometric display typeface loosely inspired by the early 20th century avant-garde. It is based on elementary shapes and includes multiple variants of each letter (over 1000 glyphs per style), as well as intelligent OpenType scripts that select glyphs to create the best word shapes. Julien is a unicase typeface in which upper case and lower case letters are mixed together. [Ler mais...]

Entre os requisitos essenciais para um bom trabalho de tipografia está, em primeiro lugar, a boa matéria-prima: fontes digitais de primeira qualidade. Nesta secção, listam-se (e comentam-se) web-sites onde vê-las e obtê-las. Todas as empresas que comercializam fontes digitais têm sites para apresentar em detalhe os desenhos e vender as fontes. Basta possuir um cartão de crédito. O tamanho das empresas e as ofertas variam. Existem pequenas digital foundries e as produtoras dos indie fonts, que vendem apenas meia dúzia de fontes – o que não deixa de ter interesse, pois esses pequenos produtores independentes vão colmatando as lacunas de criatividade que os grandes supermercados de fontes (como a Monotype/ Linotype, por exemplo) Não passa uma semana em que não haja novidades a apresentar no web tipográfico. Hoje, os sites das «digital foundries» substituem os antigos mostruários editados pelas fundições de tipos de metal. Na maioria destes web-sites, os interessados podem comprar as fontes directamente online.

He is recognised for his simple designs and his clean use of typography, notably Akzidenz-Grotesk, shapes and colours which inspires many graphic designers in the 21st century. Many of his works can be found on the gallery Blanka. [Ler mais...]

Berthold Types _OldFace
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Berthold is a name long associated with type design. H. Berthold AG was one of the largest and most successful type foundries in the world for most of the modern typographic era. Established in 1858 by Hermann Berthold and based in Berlin, the company played a key role in the introduction of major new typefaces and was a successful player in the development of typesetting machines.
The H. Berthold foundry's most celebrated family of typefaces is arguably Akzidenz-Grotesk (released 1896), an early sans-serif which prefigured by half a century the release of enormously popular neo-grotesque faces such as Helvetica. In 1950, type designer Günter Gerhard Lange embarked upon a long affiliation with the company, for which he designed various original typefaces, including Concorde and Imago, and oversaw the foundry's revivals of classic faces such as Garamond, Caslon, Baskerville, and Bodoni.
Beset by financial troubles, H. Berthold AG ceased operations in 1993. Berthold Types Ltd. , a Chicago-based company, took over distribution of the Berthold digital type library and has released several new typefaces under the direction of Lange, who had retired in 1990, but now serves as artistic consultant to the new Berthold.

A Number of Numbers _by Pentagram

The Burmese system uses lines once written on palm leaves.
Each year Pentagram issues a small holiday book as a greeting to its friends, clients and colleagues. The partners take turns researching and designing these books, which usually contain some kind of game or activity. This year’s book, A Number of Numbers, has been designed by Michael Gericke and his team. Numbers are an especially timely subject, given their importance in recent world events and for the ways they connect us now more than ever. The book features seven numerical systems, from simple tallying to the Burmese system, seen above.
We have adapted the book’s content online and are pleased to present the minisite here. Do you have a head for numbers?

Like so many typefaces, the Stainless™ design grew out of experimentation. While drawing in his sketchbook one day, Cyrus Highsmith began to rough out a serifless version of his slab serif design, Dispatch™. As he drew strokes and counters, he realized that he had the beginnings of an original family – with its own strong character and identity – not just a sans serif partner for Dispatch. The final Stainless design was chosen as the new branding typeface for Premiere magazine.Highsmith designed three display weights for the project: Ultra Thin, Thin and Ultra Light.

Highsmith, senior type designer at Font Bureau, is no stranger to magazine type design. Martha Stewart Living, The Source, MensHealth and many other publications contain his typefaces. However, magazine type design isn’t Highsmith’s sole focus. He considers himself above all a draftsman. He draws calligraphic scripts and industrial-strength sans serif faces (like Stainless) with equal ease.
Stainless is now a full family of 35 designs. Weights range from a precise Ultra Thinto a full-bodied Black. Italics, condensed, compressed and even a suite of extendeddesigns complete the family. Square shoulders and clipped terminals give Stainless a sophisticated demeanor that stands out from the crowd. If you are looking for a distinctive – and exceptionally versatile – sans, Stainless just might be the family for you. [Ler mais...]

FF Meta Serif _FontShop

It took three years and three designers to develop FF Meta® Serif. All through the ’90s, Erik Spiekermann made several attempts at designing a counterpart for his groundbreaking FF Meta®. Fans of Meta frequently asked him which serif face would best complement it. He recommended Swift™, Minion™, FF Clifford™, and others, until he realized that he should just buckle down and draw his own serif Meta. True to his principle of collaboration, Spiekermann enlisted the help of accomplished type designers Christian Schwartz and Kris Sowersby. [Ler mais...]
