The typography in my hometown is so backwards, that it is hip again!

Café CHRATZ – Bottleneck
Restaurant Löwen – Roberta III
Galliker – Gill Kayo Condensed Italic?
Künzli – Motter Ombra

Cc: @FontsInUse

Metzgerei Künzli using Motter Ombra typeface
Galliker Logistik Center using an italic font that looks like Gill Kayo Italic, but probably slanbted.
Restaurant Löwen, Snack – Bar (not in the Dutch way). Using a lion that look quite similar to the 50 Renault lion.

In about a month, I will sit down with other members of the BNO board of admission, litigation and advice, to select the best student works for the yearbook of 2023.

I would love to see some @TypeMedia alumni among the entries!

The deadline for submission is 14 September.

Today I had a call with Andreas Nymark @andreasnymark about his Kirby @getkirby foundry plug-in @Fountain.

What I have seen is really promising and exciting! A lot of automated processes thanks to #FontTools implementation. Like subsetting, trial fonts or #woff2 conversion.

You can sign up for his newsletter to stay in the loop: https://fountain.nymarktype.co

Something I'm happy to see: The Affinity suite apps are the first "mainstream" design apps which support Variable Color Fonts.

Was already waiting for this, as they went the Colr color font route instead of SVG, and variable font support was always on the horizon.

This will make sketching specimens quite a bit easier!
