An interview with David Jonathan Ross
We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again; the conversations we have with people from around the type and design industry make our hearts very happy. And this week is another example of that as we got to talk to the one and only David Jonathan Ross, or DJR. He shares his insights on what’s happening in the type world, how he runs his type design business, and much much more. It’s a fun conversation, we hope you love it too...
Emerging Type Tech Tools
Over the last couple of months, we’ve come across a few fancy new tools and tech for designers / type designers that have had us talking. So this week, we’ve packaged all of those up in a nice box and presented them to you as an audio (and newslettery) gift...
So you want to distribute a font?
We’ve been talking and thinking a lot lately about the different routes for designers who design type, but aren’t necessarily wanting to be full-time type designers. Do you need to start a foundry? How do you get your type out there? Do you have to distribute via one of the big platforms like Google or Adobe? (Spoiler alert: the answer to all of these questions is no)...
Tattoo Lettering
We’re back on our regular schedule after last week’s fun detour to collaborate with the Interrobang podcast (if you haven’t listened to that one, it’s a fun one, so make sure you scroll back a week in your podcast player to give it a listen)...
Weekly Typographic x Interrogang Crossover
Do not adjust your sets! We are coming to you this week with a very special (early) episode with our first crossover episode. And we couldn't be happier with this crossover as we're talking to the delightful and equally-as-nerdy-about-typography, Kyle and Josh from the Interrogang Podcast...
Packaging Design Storytime: From Dieline to Production Line
Settle down children, and pull up a comfy seat - it’s story time.
Join Olivia and Micah in the reading corner for this week’s nerd alert where Olivia is talking all about the world of packaging design. She shares her early experience of doing bespoke event packaging, and then moving into more commercial packaging where she learnt all of the intricacies, politics, and legalities of big-brand packaging design...
Startup Design Trends
We’re back to regular scheduling this week with Micah and Olivia chatting about all things type and design. And we're gonna be honest, this week’s links are a somewhat ragtag mix of design and type talking points...
An Interview with Beatriz Lozano
We’re having a chat with another designer this week, and we’re super excited that that designer is the wonderful Beatriz Lozano [insert cheers and whooping here]. We’ve been such fans of Beatriz’s work and approach for a long time, so we loved picking her brain on all things tech, design, education, plus a peek into the future ????????.
Of course, we’ve also got some cool links for you to check out over your Friday morning coffee...
3D Type Showcase: A Brave Neue World
Every so often we like to take a longer look at a certain type/design style or part of the industry. We’ve been seeing a lot of interesting 3D design pop up recently, both in the real world and in the overlayed world of AR so we wanted to get a little bit deeper to take a peek at different applications of this field...
Trial Fonts and Tribulations
This week Olivia is joined by Steph and they are having a big old chat about trial fonts; what we like about them, what annoys us about them, their possibilities, and some of the creative ways foundries are using them / thinking about them as part of their marketing plan. (If you’ve got strong thoughts on trial fonts - we’d love to hear them, hit reply and let us know!).
As usual, we’re also talking about some type and design news...
