Critics who kill Speed Racer are morons.Come to think of it, let's just call movie critics as a whole "morons." How about this: Go see movies for yourselves, and make up your own minds as to whether or not they pushed the right buttons for you. But back to the Wachowski Brothers' Speed Racer: You may hear or read a lot of bad reviews abou...Read the full post from The Power 150 - Top Marketing Blo... continues

And I should note that John's idea of "good" handwriting was not akin to that of our school teachers in respect to being "neat" and traditional, but more interested it seemed in the energy and personal style of the handwriting. ...

99designs, a new site of considerably questionable motives and ethics, further cheapens the value of original design and is one of the worst yet. Under the transparent guise of “contests,” the site forces designers into spec work for despicable money, undermining all of the value a proper client-designer relationship builds and furthering the idea of design as a disposable business co... continues

There’s been some good times had (and more coming!) as my company evaluates web content management (WCM) vendors, and the experience has left me with one glaring observation — in complex software, the most important feature, and the one most often missing, is good design.

Typographica’s fourth annual review showcases the best in new typeface design. Twenty four of the world’s brightest graphic and type designers selected their favorite font releases of the year.

This rightness comes in part from an especially assured use of the Dwiggins inspired visual trope of a round curve and cut curve on the interior lines of the letterforms. ...But I think in time designers will come to appreciate the solid reliability of it’s design along with it’s quiet novelty that draws and maintains the reader’s attention.

One typical downfall of type designers is to assign a connecting-style ‘r’ as the primary character in a font containing mostly letters which are not expected to connect. ...Nevison Casual has, as its original alternate, an orderly nonconnecting ‘r’ but numerous other lowercase letters in the font are simply too rowdy to let it do its job.

Where the majority of ornamental type begins with a typeface onto which swashes and decoration are added, the typeface Restraint, designed in collaboration with typographer Ross Mills, was built inside-out. The characters themselves have been defined by the negative space of the ornament, as if the letterforms are just a lucky happenstance.

In other words, I’ve been craving a font who likes to party but who can also help out with the dishes. ... Editor’s Note: Like Eric Olson’s Stratum (2003), Purista is a thoughtful 21st century nod to early 20th century geometric grotesques like Eurostile and Bank Gothic .

While there is a hint of grotesk, it does not simply copy but is truly a reflection of the present — type made in and for the digital age (of course!). ...
