Friends of Type

It’s extra nice when you come across a site that has that special feeling of being created by a group of people who are friends and hold similar interests, a great example of such a site is Friends of Type. I have been following the site and the twitter for about a week now and I have been completely amazed by the speed and quality of the work that is published on the site.

What makes FoT even more original is each piece of type work can be at a completely different level of development from biro sketches to beautiful vector work. It was definately hard trying to pick the the pieces of type work to use.

    Thanks for the write up! I appreciate that you went beyond the usual swipe-and-post, thank you. I like hearing why people like what we’re up to, so cheers.

    Aaron.
    P.S. It’s also fun to see our transparent PNGs on a white background, hmm…
