Typotheque

We have a new typeface. It is called Chairman, and Nikola Djurek designed it. https://www.typotheque.com/blog/chairman

Yesterday, we released a collection of Tibetan fonts. https://www.typotheque.com/blog/a-new-collection-of-tibetan-fonts

4,503 words. A 23-minute read. Not for everyone, and we mean that as a compliment. https://www.typotheque.com/articles/the-evolution-of-tibetan-typography

A new book in our bookshop: Irma Boom: Book Activist. 1500 pages. 8x6cm Japanese edition with English supplement. https://www.typotheque.com/books/irma-boom-book-activist

People perceive thickness of letters very individually, and that’s why we are conducting Font Weight Survey to understand the regional preferences of font weight. Could we ask you for 10 min of your time? The findings will be published publicly once we have some results.

We're working on a new type specimen where fonts are ranked by expressiveness. Help us sort them: look at two fonts, pick the more expressive one. Simple as that. (You might spot some unreleased typefaces. 🤫) https://tptq.com/got-character

Saturday seems to be a good day to play a font game. Pick which of two fonts feels more expressive — then see how your judgement compares with everyone else's. https://tptq.com/got-character

Digging this new @commercial@typo.social font campaign!

After our first successful crowdfunder to develop Cherokee fonts, we are now launching another crowdfunding campaign this time to publish a book on Armenian type. Help us publish a book through community effort.
