Kind Type - Font


My latest font: Kind Type is based on watercolor painted letters. Open, bold strokes with rounded terminals make it a very legible typeface even at small size. This typeface has a soft, friendly character with a distressed edge. It is suitable for short paragraphs, captions or headings.
25% introductory discount ends Nov 5th. Available on MyFontsFontspring, YouWorkForThem.

Antique Letterpress Characters


I'm now happy owner of this beautiful tray of assembled Victorian wood letters used for posters (and some cast lead characters) found at Brighton Street Market.
And here's a bit more about letterpress (in the US): A heartwarming trailer to a movie called Typeface, which is a documentary about Letterpress, Hamilton Wood Type Museum and the people behind it:

Unisketch




Unisketch is now available on MyFontsThis typeface is an homage to my favourite font at design college: Univers by Adrian Frutiger. Unisketch with its worn, misaligned and slightly tilted characters still retains some of the qualities that workhorse body copy requires: It is legible at small sizes and produces a compact 'Schriftbild'. Available in bold and light.
