Kari Display
Kari Display is a fresh typeface from TypeTrust. Designed by Neil Summerour, Kari Display is a face that has been refined to where each glyph has been made as simple as possible. Kari is already a great typeface, but Kari Display takes it to a new level with elegant thicks and thins. Read More
Tungsten
H&FJ have just released the newly designed compact sans-serif in four styles. Tungsten is claiming to be a persusasive typeface that is disarming instead of pushy. I love the way H&FJ describe their typefaces. SIGH. Read More
New Type: Phaeton
Maybe it’s just me, but I’m loving all of the new typefaces being brought to my attention. And a recent release over at Veer is very exciting. Phaeton, designed by Kevin Cornell with Randy Jones – “Phaeton, like Olduvai, evokes the freshness and uniqueness of hand-drawn type, yet allows for easy typesetting. A high-waisted, condensed serif face with a distinct Victorian flavor. Featuring cupped serifs and ball terminals on some... Read More
Elsa Chaves
The work from Elsa Chaves is graphic, it’s beautiful and overall – good design. Her clean illustrations and imaginative type is what makes me love the work even more. Elsa is originally from Columbia but now resides in Brooklyn where she and her boyfriend, Tyler Lang run Always With Honor, a “design collective with a focus on icon, information and map design.” I especially dig the cross-stitch typeface (shown above) which recalls...

Chunk Typeface
I just noticed that The League of Moveable Type has added a new typeface called Chunk to their website.

And hey, it’s free! “Chunk is an ultra-bold slab serif typeface that is reminiscent of old American Western woodcuts, broadsides, and newspaper headlines. Used mainly for display, the fat block lettering is unreserved... Read More
Ned Wright
Thanks to FFFFOUND!, I found the work of Ned Wright. A designer hailing from the midwest with an outstanding portofolio, my only complaint…I want to see more! Above is a specimen using his Union Made typeface and although I’m not exactly sure, according to his blog his fonts may soon be available through LTR/LTD. Above is work for Legacy Chocolate, another custom typeface I assume? And below is a wedding invitation he created for friends,... Read More
LHF Hastings Gold
Letterhead Fonts, an invaluable resource for hand-styled sign lettering has some wonderful new fonts. And one of those is Hastings Gold by John Studden. Inspired by packaging from the 1800′s of Hastings & Co, a gold leaf manufacturer. It amazes me how talented typeface developers can be, they are able to develop an entire font out of one line…Unbelievable! It’s a shame that I could not locate any information or history about...

Memoriam
Canada Type has released Memoriam, originally designed for the New York Times in a tribute issue and now it can be all yours over at myfonts.com. The Memoriam typeface contains a lot of alternates for most characters, so it was divided into three separate fonts for the Postscript and True Type formats. The OpenType version, Memoriam Pro, combines all three fonts in one OT-programmed file, and even contains a few more extras that are not in the legacy... Read More
