Ah, they look quite like a set of matchboxes I still have from my childhood...

Ordering these again, green isn't necessary...

I'm waiting for two important replies, two important silences, or two important refusals, and any combination of them can change my life quite a lot. It's curious to live through this expectation, this absence of gravity, this open flight, no ground under feet, and observe all sorts of sensations.

I'm fascinated to come across the relatives and ancestors of my gingerbread mould! Malay sugar cake moulds! Look carefully at the photo, the cakes are white and almost merge the background. And here's mine, not just possessed, but hand-carved by yours truly. #history #craft #tradition #mould #food

Nicholas Sloan – Half a century with hammer and chisel. Our next Letter Exchange lecture welcomes letter-cutter and graphic designer Nicholas Sloan, who will reflect on more than 50 years working with letters. #lettercutting #stonecarving #lettering #typography #lecture #london #uk #LetterExchange

Singapore is so much interested in my website today! What can this mean? I assume they want my fonts 😇😎 That's why I decided to dedicate this font specimen to Singapore. I make fonts — check it here 😀 www.infonta.com #graphicdesign #corporate #customfont #typography #identity #success #abitcrazy

Marshmallow letters, yum ☕️🔥 Greek. Lowercase. I can finish the font and sell the licence for Ziofora if there is a real interest to this design — just give me a wink! Do you need it as a corporate font? + Latin, Cyrillic? www.infonta.com #fonts #typography #graphicdesign #branding #identity

My love. Sorry, I mean, that's me 🤣 just me.

Only positivity. Going to choose a chocolate bar.

What if I combine a regular structure, irregular calligraphy, typewriter keys and bright colours, all in one? #pattern #typography #calligraphy #irregularity #system #live #design

Congratulations! Dr Smyth has kindly agreed to do an online talk for us at Hereford Cathedral in January: www.herefordcathedral.org/Event/what-i...

Something I've realised recently, when started attending events in person and giving lectures — I became so much used to exist online in a form of ideas only, thoughts only, that I get quite surprised when people see me, my facial expression, hear my voice... We live in a very flat virtual world 👋

Aaaaagh why does everything suck?? Fuck offfffffff and stop training your bastard machines on me!!!

A bit of rural authenticity. Cambridgeshire. Sunday walk. #typography

Mrrr

And a brilliant pianist, Gabrielė Sutkutė! It’s the first time in my life that I’ve googled a musician www.gabrielesutkute.com

On our way to the Concert Hall we met this twinkling crowd, walking from University Library, near English faculty and towards the centre of Cambridge 🎉 Any hints on what they were walking for? A bit early for Martinmas?

Rachmaninov's 2nd Piano Concerto was a hurricane and ocean storm, I nearly cried (silly). So grateful for my little one who's so serious and keen, who accompanies me everywhere this year and enjoys it! We could leave during the interval, but he wished to listen to the whole concert. Webern, Beach.

The eye is twitching.

Impressions of the fab lecture 👍 Richard Ardagh Type Archive At Letter Exchange @letter-exchange.bsky.social

the challenge the industry faces because people are now saying, essentially: "I can use it to replace YOU, but you must never use it to replace ME." And when a group of people are saying that to each other, it's a joke that isn't funny.

Attended this brilliant lecture!.. in a company of Gingerbread 😊 #typography #history #fonts #typearchive

Everyday my Instagram audience is growing: + type designer, + font designer, + custom typeface designer... I've got more than 1000 of type designers and they are still coming. What am I supposed to think about this... Education pyramids?

Almost ready! While enjoying the glazing, I've been imagining making a dozen or two Gingerbread Alphabet Tiles for Christmas — for a group of #university people! Is it a nice idea? For those who can enjoy the idea of revival in all its nerdy glory! #christmas #corporate #edible #gift #commission

See you tomorrow!

Thoughtful set up for glazing the fresh Nottingham Gingerbread Tile. Immersive experience! Organ music on 😊 #TilesOnTuesday #heritage #design #play
