Great piece from Jim Coudal on Creative Mornings. 

Found while digging for some type, take a look at Matchbook, it comes in Serif and Sans. It has some merit, though still feels like a few letters need refining.

Juggling 101

I wish I could say we’ve all be enjoying tropical beaches, and drinks poolside with little umbrellas in them, but that just wouldn’t be the truth. One of the many tricks of running a small, start-up agency is juggling responsibilities, wearing a few hats and troubleshooting as you go. Anyways, although we haven’t been blogging, we have been collecting a few good resources to share. 

Our first issue of Codex arrived in the mail last week and quickly followed by two issues of Uppercase Magazine. We also came across some sweet old type, and a few other good finds. We’ll start posting updates tomorrow and work to do a better job of staying on top of our blogging. 

Cheers for now.

This is a fantastic short documentary on Doyald Young, by Lynda.com

If you haven’t visited the Lost Type Foundry co-op yet, take a moment and do so. They have a few great collections of type, and better yet it’s on a “pay what you want” model. Sure, you could elect ‘0’, but chip in a few bucks to fund the project.
