Frere-Jones Type | Typeface Mechanics: 001 Our conscious minds want to draw one shape, but our eyes need to see another. Part of typeface design is managing this eternal friction between logic and optics. It’s always there, no matter the style. This new series of posts will explore what I call “typeface mechanics”, the behind-the-scenes work that makes typefaces visually functional. The typeface design process has many counterintuitive moments. Square shapes like H have a simple and stable relationship to the baseline and cap height. If the “correct” height appears inadequate, “too much” will look right. If curves need overshoot because they don’t behave like squares, pointed shapes are even less like squares, and accordingly get more overshoot. But like many aspects of type mechanics, overshoot comes in degrees. Even within a single family, variations of weight and width can alter a shape’s exterior, and require a recalibration of alignment. Sloping serifs can make matters harder again. But those come next.

Dynamic Dummy Image Generator - DummyImage.com Our Favorite Typefaces of 2004 As the new year began I asked Typographica readers and contributors to share their top picks from the fonts released during 2004. Here are the results in no particular order. Bello [MyFonts] Akiem Helmling, Bas Jacobs, Sami Kortemäki Prior to its release, the sign-painterly inkings of Bello existed in the Underware and Typeradio wordmarks. Frankly, I adored the unassuming playfulness of those logos more than what many may deem as healthy. Olduvai Randy Jones After exciting the Typophile crit boards with a couple clever interpretations of past types (Neweue Helpetica and Saint Nicolaus), Randy Jones hit us in early 2004 with a wholly original design, a handlettered roman (drawn at 1 cm.) inspired by archeological digs at the craddle of man. Auto Akiem Helmling, Bas Jacobs, Sami Kortemäki The following confessions were found in an unnamed schoolgirl’s diary: I think I want Auto 3 Italic to be my boyfriend.Where in the rule books does it say that counters must be closed? – Zara Evens
