type face love

 

 

I get asked a lot, so where can I find some good fonts? Or what are your favorite fonts? So I thought I would start blogging about some great typefaces I use and where you can find them. And I don’t have favorites, that would be too committal for me. I normally favor a font for a few weeks then move on only to rediscover the font weeks later and fall back in type-face love. I have already shared a really neat site called Lost Type Co-OP, to find some beautiful inexpensive/free typefaces in an earlier post, check it out here (they also have released some new typefaces since my last post). Today’s typeface is also a free-bee from The League of Moveable Type, it’s called Ostrich Sans. I just downloaded this so I haven’t had a chance to use it yet, but I am excited to, especially  the dashed option.

Sorry I have been a bit sporadic in posting lately. I have been oh so busy with some fun projects, which I can’t wait to share with you all!

1950s European Luggage Tags

 

Here is some more design inspiration for you all. I ran across these vintage Swiss luggage tags on Flickr I about passed out I love them so much. I love this style of design, especially the clean simple typefaces. They were gathered and complied by a fellow designer, check out more inspiration oh his Flickr stream here.
