Autobahn is an dutch design agency with a love for type. Autobahn designs special graphical projects, often with an illustrative and typographical angle. I really like the way they play with type in this particular project (glad I´m not themodel). The project I´m talking about is called Arts In Area Development.

“Arts In Area Development is a collaboration between artists and area developers. Together they are looking for a way to provide a place for art in areas yet to be developed. Will the implantation of art and culture into area development projects increase the quality of the development plans? What possibilities will there be for the artists? And will there arise involvement with the future area residents?”

Read more about the project, and see all the “behind the scene” pictures here. It´s sweet, promise.

This was fun. Today I was at the NKF (Norges Kreative fagskole) and talked about type design and typography. Very nice bunch to talk to. Lots of questions afterwards as well. So either they were interested or I was a bit blury and unclear. Hope to come back soon. I’m sorry that I didnt took pictures of the wonderful gang. Instead a have a picture of the wine Eva gave to me :-)

My friend and artist Bjørn Kowalski Hansen (one of the co-founders of the legendary t-shirt brand and art project Håkki™ (check out the super cheesy and fun intro on this site) ) has some sweet art projects going on. I went through some of his work, and stole the type relevant pictures. (sorry Bjørn) If you like these pictures, please visit Bjørn here. There is loads of this over at his site. Enjoy!

Working on a little something for the AD class at NKF. Hope they are as happy about type as I am, hardly, :-)

Just had to post this. I will look at it every time I´m stressed out. This makes me go; Ahh. Bigger picture

Sweetest job hiring ad I´ve seen in a while (ever?). All the temp agencies (Manpower etc.) have something to learn.

I´m really looking forward to seeing this movie: Typeface. From the site - “Typeface focuses on a rural Midwestern museum and print shop where international artists meet retired craftsmen and together navigate the convergence of modern design and traditional technique.” Mmmh! We´ve posted the Typeface trailer before, but now they have made some sweet posters to:
