from the archive
After yesterdays talk, I found my self bold enough to post an old type sketch of mine. This was made for a project we had couple of years ago. Think it was early 2007. The sketch was suppose to be, if it worked out (witch it did not), the heading for the famous UREDD calendar. Anyhow, here is my sketch:
Stuff I used: clay, pencil & photoshop.

Disorder Type
Reykjavik based graphic designer and illustrator Siggeir Hafsteinsson with a nice font!
Dissociative identity disorder is a typeface with two distinct personalities.
Following in the tradition of Tyler Durden and “Jack” (Ed Norton’s character) in Fight Club,
the typeface is at once an aggressive risk taker, and a solid, trustworthy friend.

The type of Mats Ottdal
Mats Ottdal went one year above me in school at RMIT Communication Design, Melbourne. He is now working in NYC at Stag&Here. I remember his graduate folio, and I’m delighted to see more of his recent type driven work.

Bjørn Kowalski Hansen
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!

Typeface -the movie
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:

Vitesse from H&FJ
New release from Hoefler & Frere-Jones. Vitesse is as H&FJ say a slab serif for the 21st century. Read the story behind Vitesse, see the different styles, and take it for a test drive here.
I took Vitesse for a spin, I highly recommend it.

Sea Ark Sheep – the preview
Our friend (and fellow type club member) Stian W. Bugten and his buddy Simon P. Egli has worked on a font the for a while now. We blogged about the project some time ago, but things have happened since then.
Copy+Pasted from Simons site:
“Sea Ark Sheep a contextual typeface.
This font is getting its look only by typing. See a preview on vimeo.
Started as a project at Central Saint Martins, finally this font is getting released early 2010 by the publisher Die Gestalten. For a preview a small serie of riso prints has been published. (100 sets of 7 A3)”
Lucky me. I got my hands on one of those preview sets. I took some pictures of the sweetness on my kitchen floor.
Well. Enough talk. Here´s the pics:
On Stians Flickr there is some photos from the preview printing in Zurich. Check it out.
Looking forward to seeing the font on sale at Die Gestalten.

Typeface the vigilante
I´ll stab you with my P…
Typeface aka “Captain A-Face”, is a Marvel vigilante. Typeface is a army veteran, and a former sign painter, with bad mental health. Even though he has no powers, he have won over Spider Man once, and, I might ad, he has weapons: A variety of letters-based weaponry adorning his costume (including a razor-sharp letter “P”). He is my, hands down, favorite Marvel, even though he was killed in 2007. R.I.P.
