SudTipos releases Semilla typeface
SudTipos, the amazing type foundry from Argentina, released Semilla yesterday, a new ornamental display typeface and it looks absolutely gorgeous. You just have to love the marvelous terminations like those in Roses or Zoe above. And what about the ligature of ’ss’ characters ? I find interesting how the lowercase ‘g’ and ‘y’ saves a lot of vertical space. I am amazed at how each glyph has its own strong identity, for example the stems on top of the ‘f’ and ‘c’.

IT-FADU is a project aiming to put together a directory of all the typefaces, typographers and type foundries from all over the world, like for example Adios Script as a typeface, Ale Paul as a typographer, and Type Together (ring a bell? yes, they are the producers of Bree, one of MyFonts’ latest best seller) or PampaType as a Type Foundry.

The origin of Twitter’s logo?
Don’t you feel sometimes that the ‘e’ in Twitter doesn’t quite fit the rest of the characters? let alone the weird difference between the first ‘t’ and the rest of the word. Well, Masayuki Sato states in this Flickr entry that the ‘twi’ and ‘r’ were type using his font, Pico-alphabet, which he released back in 2001.
Masayuki Sato has a lot of typefaces available for download at his site, mostly handwritten fonts, display fonts and even some dingbats.
