Every well-designed typeface I spend a significant amount of time looking at and thinking about becomes my new favorite typeface, this is a sickness.

Hey. Stop being so hard on yourself. You are learning. Don’t let your ego convince you that you are the only person facing uncertainty, doubt, exhaustion, fear, etc. You have people around you that care and are likely facing similar feelings. We grow in community.

I made this the other night while procrastinating, mainly because I thought all the posts about the blackout were boring. It feels like there is momentum bringing people together!

Embleme Kinetic Visual Identity Font
Emblème is a variable font that’s more than a set of letterforms. It’s a brand ecosystem where typography, color and motion converge.

Who preserves culture—and who cashes in on it? My first
@its-nice-that.bsky.social

Elizabeth Goodspeed on what happens when we treat the past like a stock library
Not all borrowing is the same. From public domain illustrations on book covers to AI’s data hoarding, who really owns culture – and who gets away with taking it?

Posthumous update 2/5: I'm making the PDF specimen, which means we're very close to release—and the launch of my type foundry, Prologue Type! Coming later this week. Or maybe next week.

I see that
@arrowtype.bsky.social
is on a roll on YouTube with a WIP mono font design. A unique chance to look over a type designer’s shoulders!

Posthumous update 1/20/25: ✅ All letters (incl. language support) have been drawn! Still to do: [] Kerning for .isol forms [] Draw some more symbols (mostly currency symbols left) [] Double check that my OpenType features actually work [] Double check variable axis for issues
