I syumbled upon Pablo Alfieri´s page today, and I just had to share. Pablo is a playful man/dude/designer from Argentina with a fun portfolio. Check it out . Or don`t…

Stranger than fiction (2006) has some great typography within time-based motion in the intro. A personal favorite of mine.

Realy nice typography from Wemake design.

This is what they say about the product…

“Brochure and Identity for the Brand Union, a large old department store here in Dublin called Arnotts, who are redeveloping their store and creating new streets around them into a new shopping area. They wanted an eye catching brochure and identity for the new scheme entitled Northern Quarter. The brochure contained an overview of the store, the area, various maps, cad drawings and lifestyle shots, we felt the elements were quite disparate in style so developed a font based on the idea of mapping and scaffolding, this would then be used in an illustrative manner to bring everything together, it was also used to create a sense of ambiguity and theatre. The font was used as headlines and as a pattern on the front that was debossed and foiled into a mad gf smith stock called Pergrina  Ruby Red, a metallic paper that looks like a christmas bauble. All in all great fun to do.”

Now days the magazine Esquire has a cover girl with type on her body, (actually it`s part of a Stephen King story) on their front page.

Reminds me of this picture of Stefan Sagmeister:

(If you should write a horror novel on your body, why not do it in scars? )

BTW (TTC likes Sagmeister more than Esquire):

Often overlooked are the signs at Honest Ed’s—the ones of blue, red, and yellow that, camped out amongst the items for sale, announce only their names and prices. No avuncular, groan-inducing puns or flashing lights to captivate your attention here; these seem homespun in comparison, easy to ignore. But like all things Mirvish, there is something unconventional about the signs, something off yet showy, and a moment of consideration reveals what it is: they’re all hand-painted

I went for a good, long walk yesterday. All over Trondheim, and I just had to take pictures of all the type I laid my eyes on… Good, nice, ugly, funny and bad. Printed and sprayed. Yup. So here it is: Trondheim on a monday. The type edition… enjoy:

Just had to blog my mother’s freehand icing type.
One day I will make a typeset of her specimens!

Trough FFF I found mr. Keith Morris. Lucky me. And. Lucky you…
