There is some pretty dope ass typography in the portfolio of Vanila Barcelona. Very rare that I write or speak the phrase ‘dope ass’ anymore. Thanks for making me bring that back Vanila Barcelona.

I would be lying if I said I liked the website for Almost Modern, its not exactly ideal but there is some great typographical posters in their portfolio that still justify a visit and some clickthroughs. The ‘To Be’ poster is a particular favorite. Simple and smart.

I really dig the Miss Alphabet font from Sheriff. Radical and a touch ironic.

Kay Rosen is an artist whose work is comprised of typographic wordplay, and what I guess I would describe as experiments with word structure and language interpretation. She exhibits this work through installations and produces paintings utilizing color and letterforms that explore word usage and character combinations. Its interesting to see typography used purely as an artform unto itself and see it within the context of high-end contemporary art.

Cameron Moll’s letterpress poster featuring the edifice of the Salt Lake Temple is really extraordinary. Unfortunately the print is already sold out but may be reprinted. Regardless, it is worth checking out just for the sake of inspiration. The work is absolutely beautiful and it is the kind of image that was crafted out of sheer patience and love for typography. It had to have been incredibly difficult to create but the end result is really stunning.

“This letterpress poster was handcrafted character by character over the course of roughly 100 hours. Characters from the Bickham Script Pro, Engravers MT, and Epic typeface families form the edifice featured in the artwork, the Salt Lake Temple. Additional detail photos available at Cameron’s Veer Portfolio.

Each poster measures 16″x24″ and is printed on Crane Lettra Pearl. Letterpressed by Bryce Knudson of Bjørn Letterpress in Provo, Utah.”
