A look at the type releases of the past week.
- Dalton Maag released Fraise, a humanist sans by Pablo Bosch inspired by Roger Excoffon’s Antique Olive.
- Joc by Sabina Kipară has graduated from Future Fonts and has been reissued with Type-Ø-Tones.
Along with Joc, Type-Ø-Tones has also soft-launched this August:
- Unicaster by José Manuel Urós, an unicase sans based on unidentified type from the 60s.
- Fabulosa by Laura Meseguer, a ‘fat face’ influenced by Ed Benguiat’s Caslon.
- DINosaur Sharp by José Manuel Urós with Pilar Cano and Ferran Milan, an evolution of DINosaur with straight terminals.
In other news: A font with built-in syntax highlighting, a clever use of color font technology.
On the website, I’ve added a new facet to navigate typefaces and foundries: Typefaces by distributor and Foundries by distributor.
Pro tip: like with other lists on the website, you can use the Roll dice button in the top-right corner for some surreptitious serendipity. If you’re on a desktop device, hold down the Ctrl key (Windows) or Command key (MacOS) while clicking to open the random link in a new tab rather than navigating away.
