Amazing retro covers published for the Schools Council by MacDonald Educational Ltd.London, 1972-1973
David Pearson designed the 5 new Penguin covers for the George Orwell series. They include Nineteen Eightyfour, Animal Farm, Down and Out in Paris and London, Homage to Catalonia, and Politics and the English Language.
Such a great look and feel from Daniel Blackman for Pointer Brand. Through the choice of visuals, one can really get the sense of the brands heritage and legacy. I cant wait to see this direction when it goes live online and physically. Such an all around eye catcher.
A beautiful collection of typefaces produced by Monokrom out of Norway. They may not have a huge selection to choose from so far, but the fonts that are currently available for purchase are all very elegantly thought out and each has its own unique characteristics. Im very drawn to Faunus and am trying to find a use for it. It has a great balance of heavy to thin line weights used to create a really interesting visual appeal.
A2-type & A2/SW/HK are juggernauts in the realm of design and especially, typography. A2-type is the foundry side of the business, producing some of the awe inspiring fonts in my eyes. Its the attention to the details that has kept me following the career of these two gentlemen. A2/SW/HK is the studio side and churns out a strong, minimal esthetic range of design with a vast client base. Scott and Henrik have the best of both worlds and continue to have the design community astounded.
