The installation of  the typographic roundel 26.08.10

A project to help give personalities to typefaces, I think it works.

The final 30 letters are close to completion and are due to be put in place this forthcoming week. They form part of a typographic roundel that is to be placed  on top of the stone circle structure already in place (see July 14th post – Circle).

A collection of minimal logo designs posted up on Twitter by Erik Spiekermann, I think Twitter is a great opportunity to see how many designers think and see what they find interesting.

Hat-Trick Design have created a bespoke typeface especially dedicated to the Victoria area of London were every letter resembles a little story about the area. The system can be used for several developments in which Land Securities is engaged throughout Victoria. You can mix and match the letters to create new words and phrases depending on the context and available space.
