Props to FontShop

I want to thank the wonderful guys over at FontShop. Working on a book publishing project, I was trying to find the perfect text face. I decided to let their researchers make some suggestions, and gave them a set of parameters that I thought was near impossible to completely achieve - not just a complete feature set for mathematical and Greek characters, but also the right tone. Sure enough, they came through with a couple options that were spot on!

CoreNet Orlando

Just got some printed samples for our latest print piece for CoreNet's Orlando conference. I'm not sure if the photo does the orange justice. It's hot. Like Orlando in August hot.

The Shape of Song

For Bruce Levingston's upcoming album design, Patrick and I were interested in exploring visual representations of musical form. In researching for it, I came across this project: The Shape of Song. They've built a program which diagrams out the connection of notes in arches of varying size - they also have an extensive library of songs... in glorious MIDI.

Grumpy Bird

I'm working on a project for Scholastic Books and get to check out new picture books and illustrators. I want a picture of Jeremy Tankard's Grumpy Bird to show up automatically on my computer screen when I'm having a grumpy morning too.

New Site: Therapie NY

We just launched a new e-commerce site for Therapie New York, a local pharmacy and department store. Check it out, and place an order or two - they have some nice stuff. I particularly like these and these.
