  • Kinetic Type

    A great little kinetic type video by Jarrett Heather. It’s already made the rounds of my favourite blogs, so it’s more than likely you’ve already seen it.

  • The Quick Brown Fox Jumps over the Lazy Dog

    I loved playing games as a kid. Board games, card games, computer games I’ve probably played it. So I’m quite happy to find out there is now a card game that involves typography. People who have designer or typography lover friends take note: This is a perfect christmas gift (I hope someone got that hint…

  • Kinetic Typography

    Youtube is great for looking at online video content. I’ve found Youtube to be a more valuble source on tutorials than google or tutorial sites. Somehow watching someone do what you would like to do it more useful than having words explaining how to do it. I’ve recently become interested in Kinetic Typography through watching…

  • Melbourne Design Market

    While away in Melbourne a week ago I was fortunate enough to visit the Melbourne Design Market. Although the layout and though are pretty similar to Adelaide’s Bower Bird Bazaar it was interesting to see what is popular in other states.

    Due to the huge amount of work I have this week I’m unable to do a proper post. However I have found some interesting examples of cities interpreted through type.

The advertisement is eye catching and really screams at you with capitals. It’s also a good example of how little animation can also be the most…

  • Typography

    I found a few good typography websites the other day and thought I would share them. More new math is a clever site which combines Typography with maths. Some of these sayings are just wonderful. For a link to the site: Typograhic posters Typographical posters seem to be a database of popular typographical designers. It’s…

  • Inspirational Packaging

    Despite the saying “Don’t judge a book by it’s cover”, people do judge products by the packaging. I was quite impressed when I saw this blog post on abduzeedo. Although most of the work are student designs, it shows how much consideration and care is taken when designing the final product. No matter what the…

  • I can read

    Well I know you can read if your reading this blog but I would like to take you to this site: The idea is words being expressed as images. There are some real gems here and it’s amazing how a different typeface can add a whole new meaning to a sentence. It’s really worth a…
