Just surfing around on the big waves of typography on the many, many design related websites out there. Since it`s Sunday, and since the sun have givn me such a nice color (C0M79Y21K0), and since I`m in the mood for some pictures, I`ll share them with you guys (and girls)! Woho! Here we go:
All the pics is from the infamous www. Some photos from this site, this place, here plus here. Kudos to the makers.
Oh, holy mother of Christ… Thank GOD or some other supreme being for Typekit.
They are about to release their new solution for using fonts on the web. Their own words: “…For designers and developers, this is a significant step forward. No longer will you need to trap your content in images or Flash just to express yourself visually. Pages will be more usable, accessible, and indexable. This is a massive upgrade for the web.”
Last summer I played with water and typo (nothing spectacular, just fooling around with some Imsdal and asphalt):
And to day I suddenly remembered it. So I just wanted to check out the interwebs for some water-typo. And KABOOOM; this guy made my day… I don´t understand the words, but visually it`s wonderful!
It’s been long since I googled the words “free font”. I guess I learned that these words in google normally hits you with tons of shit ttf’s. Despite this fact I did google this word-combo today, and only a couple of lines down I was lead to these free and fresh sets of vector type.
Dj Dsl aka Stefan Biedermann from Hamburg, Germany is a very talented dj and producer. Apart from this he’s got a good grip on his black marker. He draws all his flyers in a nice, naive, slabby style. On his site you can see his the calendar he’s got for sale and also last years Wallchart for European Football Championship.
I saw an amazing concept on FormFiftyFive yesterday, and I just had to tell our readers about it. Jas Bhachu is a student (!!!) at Liverpool School of Art & Design. Not only is his portfolio amazing and clever, but he have mada a Rubik’s Cube Font Generator. It works as an regular Rubik´s Cube, but it generates type, and works as a stamp. Again I say: DAMN!
TTC (Trondheim Type Club) started out in 2008 by Aasmund Hegglid and Trond Aslak Øvrum. The idea was made in 2007 as something we missed in our town. A breeding place for type-fanatics.
We are now a group of people with relations to the design/advertising industry in Trondheim, Norway.
We all have passion and love for typography, and want to share our ideas, inspirations and knowledge with everyone. Kern or die!
