70 Typographic, Clean And Minimalist Color Scheme Web Designs Hello there! It’s time for little inspiration and this time I wanted to showcase something different. You may know that very popular designer slogan – “More is Less”, and yes it’s often so true – unexperienced people tend to overcrowd, use too much colors in their designs.

Woody Allen’s typography — Kit·blog — Cristian 'Kit' Paul Here is how Fonts.com describes "EF Windsor family": Windsor is an unusual design cut by Stephenson Blake in 1905. Windsor is a bold face with heavy rounded serifs and strong diagonal stress. Capitals M and W are widely splayed, P and R have very large upper bowls. The Lowercase a h m and n of the Windsor font have angled right hand stems, e has an angled cross-stroke. The overall effect is one of friendliness and warmth. Ed Benguiat, the "printer" How did Woody Allen chose this typeface? Benguiat had an affinity for Windsor and suggested it to him that morning. I'm currently taking a typeface design course with Ed Benguiat, and just last night he described a time when he would have breakfast at the same New Jersey diner every morning. It is also interesting that after Annie Hall (1977) Woody Allen betrays Windsor—Interiors (1978) titles are set in a News Gothic-ish sans serif—only to return to it for Mahattan in 1979. Update: Mr. All very nicely worded and all technically correct. 1. 2.
Lesbian Bands Hear Them Roar Hear them roar. Many of today’s queer female bands are grappling with their riot grrrl legacy. The Shondes (from left) Temim Fruchter, Fureigh, Louisa Rachel Solomon, and Elijah Oberman When people hear the Shondes for the first time, they’re often struck by the Brooklyn-based punk band’s driving, Pat Benatar–reminiscent sound, and the violin, expertly wielded by one of the gender-tweaking foursome. And then there’s the name: the Shondes. That can leave some music fans scratching their heads. Their name might require some translation, but their hooks need no such interpretation. So Fruchter and her band mates take the adoration they’ve gotten from regional LGBT press across the country for what it is: “Wonderful.” (RELATED: Six LGBT Acts You Need to Know About Now) “It’s a good way for people in all parts of the queer community to connect to us,” she explains of the inevitability of being labeled that comes with media coverage. And yet they’d all have it no other way.

Choosing Type Combinations Layers Magazine | Layers Magazine One of the most challenging—but also one of the most satisfying—aspects of designing with type is choosing several typefaces that “look great together.” But who’s to say what looks great together? Often you choose several faces and after experimenting for a while, you instinctively know that a particular combination “works.” But since we’re all so busy and under such deadlines, we need to find type solutions quickly. To do that, it helps tremendously to be able to put into words exactly why a particular combination doesn’t work and what to look for when trying to find faces that complement each other. First, follow the Holy Font Guideline #1 when choosing different typefaces for a piece: Concord or contrast, but don’t conflict. That is, either stick with different styles in the same typeface family (concord), or choose completely different faces (contrast). 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. CONCORD For a concordant look, choose one type family from any category. CONFLICT OR CONTRAST? 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
The origins of abc Where does our alphabet come from? We see it every day on signs, billboards, packaging, in books and magazines; in fact, you are looking at it now — the Latin or Roman alphabet, the world’s most prolific, most widespread abc. Typography is a relatively recent invention, but to unearth the origins of alphabets, we will need to travel much farther back in time, to an era contemporaneous with the emergence of (agricultural) civilisation itself. Robert Bringhurst wrote that writing is the solid form of language, the precipitate.[1] But writing is also much more than that, and its origins, its evolution, and the way it is now woven into the fabric of civilisations makes it a truly wonderful story. That story spans some 5,000 years. Cuneiform The Sumerians began to experiment with writing at the close of the fourth millennium BC, in Mesopotamia between the rivers Tigris and Euphrates (roughly modern-day Iraq). 1.1 The pictographic origin of Cuneiform. 1.2 Proto-Cuneiform.
