“I designed this colourwheel calendar due to my frustration with the way calendars only allowed me to view units of seven days or a month at a time. I decided to lay out the calendar on a single page, making it possible to view the whole year at a
glane. Thus enabling the viewer to start making new associations between events and time in general. A lunar calendar is integrated into the layout making it easy to see full and new moons.”
The calendar is available at Ghin. It’s a beautiful piece of typographic work.
Updates at Negro Nouveau whose amazing fonts you can now purchase as well.
There is some good stuff in the portfolio of Profil.
I Love Typography had a great roundup this week featuring the typeface Akimoto above that I absolutely love and can’t wait to get my hands one. You can catch the whole roundup here.
Lifelounge has put up the official Some Type of Wonderful store and there are still several A1-sized prints available from some very renowned typographers and illustrators. The only catch is they are not cheap.
Interesting list of inspirational typography here from a long list of equally interesting designers.
I am really liking what is happening in the Flickr folio of Network Osaka.
Niklaus Troxler is a Swiss born designer and is also the organizer of the Willisau Jazz Festival. He now teaches at the State Academy of Fine Arts in Stuttgart. His portfolio is bursting with inspirational design.
There is some really interesting typography happening at How Do You Spell Kjartansson, including my most favorite font to be released this year, Black Slabbath.
Designing Minds has an excellent interview with the amazing graphic designer/typographer Marian Bantjes that you can watch here. It’s very insightful and it is worth lending your ear to her for a moment as she is inarguably one of the best working designers out there today.

Soulellis Studio recently rebranded The Municipal Art Society of New York—the oldest urban development advocacy group in New York City. Our team is smart, sharp and savvy.

Brilliant typographical work.
The word above summarizes the work in the portfolio of Tnop Design.
There is a full portfolio of good graphic design work waiting at Ontwerpatelier.
“Nepomuk is a small design and illustration group in Berlin, Prenzlauer Berg. Daniel Dolz, Doris Freigofas and Sven Neitzel have started Nepomuk in Autumn 2005. Doris Freigofas and Sven Neitzel currently study at the Kunsthochschule-Berlin Weißensee, Daniel Dolz studys at the FHTW in Berlin.”
I wrote about Neue a long while back on the previous version of my blog but they have since put a lot more work on their site and it is all just absolutely brilliant.
Thank you for the reminder, Formfiftyfive.
“I was born in 1986 in a small town called Zelenograd (‘green-town‘) somewhere near Moscow, USSR. During my childhood I was taught the drawing basics by my father — that’s how it all started. I can clearly remember myself drawing on almost all surfaces later in school and then, spending free time at the university between the lectures, I started drawing letters.”
