French Burners

Sometimes type just fits so well, even though it took hours & hours of work to put together, it looks like it was always meant to be that way. Loving this Identity for French Burners, especially the black and white outline versions.

Fontplore

James — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 16:32:37 +0000

Combining the words font and explore to create an interactive font exploration table, Christian Hertlein and Marcus Paeschke have created Fontplore

Fontplore is an interactive application designed for searching and exploring font databases.Fontplore helps you to easily find the right typeface for your project in a collection of several thousands of fonts. It lets you browse, preview, compare and print the fonts you are interested in.
And the clou is: It does all that on an interactive table, using tangible objects to navigate and control actions, so the workflow is easy to understand – easy to grasp!

Looks pretty sexy!

some beautiful script, and illustrated typography for this poster make it a cut above the norm, and nothing quite like a beautiful quality print to finish.

The Sweetest Taboo
