      On Kickstarter: The Tramp Printers

      “A tramp printer was a typesetting troubadour who came to town with a story in lieu of a song — an itinerant scholar and a master of the typecase. Carrying a union journeyman’s card and little else, these train-hopping typographers criss-crossed the continent by foot and rail for more than a century. To the tramp printers, freedom and the open road were far more valuable than material possessions.”

      It’s time to act

      We ask the type and design industry
      • to actively include more BIPOC
      • to stop using the term Non-Latin
      • to diversify education
      • to challenge the practice of designing for scripts we did not grow up reading and writing

      “A contemporary font family designed to represent Wales to the world [...]. Whilst the bespoke typefaces take cues from the Welsh typographical heritage, special care was taken not to wander into the territory of pastiche or parody. All three commissions were developed in close collaboration with the Colophon Foundry with additional consultancy from Joseph Burrin.”

      How The 2016 Olympic Logo and Font were Created

      “Our prompt was that the font had to be an exact replica of the letters in the logo,” says Maag, who knew it would be a challenge due to its reverse creative process. “Usually you make the font and then do the logo,” he notes. Dalton Maag had 3 letters and 4 figures to use as a roadmap.
