NEW: Forma DJR
Forma DJR is a revival of Nebiolo’s classic Italian sans that brings a measure of warmth to the cold, rational neo-grotesque genre. Drawn with Roger Black for his 2013 redesign of Hong Kong Tatler, our interpretation recaptures the spirit of late-60s/early-70s typography with letterspacing that is tight but not touching, and rounded corners and tapering stems that echo the imperfections of ink and paper. Meet Forma DJR, the interesting boring sans.

Toshi’s Amazing Reversed Noordzij Rubick’s Cube
I’m back from TypeCon 2016 with a new prized possession: a reversed stress Noordzij Rubick’s Cube. This came from the idea that I proposed in my Backasswards talk a few TypeCons back.
Many thanks to Toshi Omagari, designer of the multiwidth reverse-stress typeface Cowhand and Rubick’s cube solver extraordinaire, who created this amazing object.

My love of vertical signs sometimes takes me to pretty dark corners of the typographic universe...
