294 pages of type specimens!
A very large collection of type specimens all in one book. I have thought about such a thing before, but this is quite vast.
On permanent loan (I think!) from one of my best friends Greg Storey, this book will take some time to digest, and I am really enjoying it. By the way, it comes with a dust jacket that transforms into a fine poster print.
By Lars Harmsen and Marian Misiak.
From the authors, they believe that “independent type design reflects culture in its ambition to build an exciting alternative to the monolithic corporate font giants. In that spirit, we put together a collection of the most trendsetting, forward-thinking and provocative type specimens produced in the last decade.”
Interior of the type specimen book is well layed out and the type is stunning.
