- Introducing FF Tisa's sans companion, FF Tisa Sans
-
FF Tisa Sans is Slovenian designer Mitja Miklavčič's follow-up typeface to FF Tisa. Whether used together or separately, both of his families are excellent choices for branding projects and complex editorial applications. The original FF Tisa is one of the new-millennium favorites in the FontFont library--known for its sturdy and friendly forms, hence its common use in newspapers and magazines.
In all important details, FF Tisa Sans matches FF Tisa perfectly. Aside from the lack of serifs, th... (more)

-
'Krul' is a typographic interpretation of the lettering style created by Dutch letter painter Jan Willem Joseph Visser at the end of the 1940s, which decorated the traditional brown bars of Amsterdam. In the beginning, these letters were strongly associated with the pubs connected to the Amstel brewery, given that Visser was the company's official painter. As the years passed, the style became increasingly popular, and various business owners in Amsterdam and other Dutch and Belgian cities... (more)

- New Release: Eskapade Fraktur
- We welcome the very talented Alisa Nowak and her Eskapade to TypeTogether's family.
The Eskapade family is the result of research confronting Roman and German blackletter forms, mainly fraktur letters. The idea is to adapt these broken forms for a contemporary use instead of creating a faithful revival of a historical typeface.
On one hand, Eskapade is conceived for continuous text in books and magazines with a good legibility in smaller sizes, and on the other hand Eskapade directs the re... (more)

- Today Jean-Marc Ballée for Chaumont festival
-
The task of creating the 23rd International Poster and Graphic Design Festival's communications was handed to Jean-Marc Ballée.
He knows Chaumont like a graphic designer knows the Festival. He knows the local area like the town itself, where he was in residency from 2003 to 2006. The communications, whose role is to foster dialogue, were in themselves a subject of discussion. Their design and publication was a two-way piece of work with Jean-Marc Ballée, and this dialogue laid bare the 2012 F... (more)

Solution Greece? – Zak Group
Zak Group presents the Sternberg Press Solution series, edited by Ingo Niermann and designed by Zak Group beginning in 2008.
The Solution series invites authors to develop an abundance of compact and original ideas for countries and regions, contradicting the widely held assumption that after the end of socialism, human advancement is only possible technologically or requires a yet-to-be-established world order. In Solution 9: The Great Pyramid, Niermann wr... (more)

*Latent Stare* – David Bennewith
The motivating concept behind a *Latent Stare* exhibition is the suggestion, exploration and illustration of the idea that a typeface, as a systematic design and as a (digital) product, is something that carries or projects a meaning (into civil society) beyond commercial -- antecedent and subsequent aesthetic -- imperatives and derivatives.
The main thesis to explore is how these phenomena might be realized and played out through a typefaces programmed in... (more)
