As bad as I felt for the people losing their jobs, as I read the stories about the Somerdale factory closure, I couldn’t help wondering how a person would go about obtaining a meter high apostrophe…

Neutra Face : An Ode On A Typeface (A Bearded Poker Face Parody)

With gold lines like “Avant Garde you make me hard” and a chorus of “You can be my Neutraface – even if it’s bold italic” watching this was the perfect way to kick start work this morning.

Typodarium 2010 – Lars Harmsen and Raban Ruddigkeit

365 Typefaces from 180 Designers & Foundries in 30 Countries. This is probably the third 2010 calendar I’ve looked at and thought Ooooo that’s the calendar for me! 2010 might be the year for multiple wall and desktop calendars :)

Fancy Problems – Mike Perry Studio aka MIDWESTISBEST VIA

I like t-shirts, great typography, funny, or at least saying something interesting or clever.

I was on the train the other day and a boy maybe just into his early 20′s sat opposite me, and the shirt he was wearing really pissed me off. It was surprising how much I wanted to tell him his shirt sucked! It was in an 80′s style, geometric striped pattern with big fluro type saying “Cancel my subscription, I’m tired of your issues”… I know, not exactly offensive yet everything about it offended me. :) I must be getting old.
