Free Fonts - Museo



Jos Buivenga
is one of those people who decided to give, instead of receive. His exljbris Font Foundry creates amazing (truly amazing) fonts, but instead of charging designers, Jos decided to give most of them away for free. Only certain weights are fully paid for versions.
I think his incredible attitude pays off. What goes around comes around - his name is heard loud and clear in the whole industry, his fonts are called out in numerous articles. To start your adventure with exljbris Font Foundry, try the beautiful Museo font, available for a free download here, in different weights. Continue reading to hear the "behind the scenes" story of creating the Museo font.

Firefly Press Video



I found this video on the Book Cover Archive blog and had to share it with you. After sharing it on facebook I was called crazy, but what the heck, I believe I'm not after all!

Justin LaFontaine



These beautiful curves stole my heart. The poster was designed by Justin LaFontaine, designer at Veer. After sharing my appreciation for the design at his blog, Justin replied: I have Alejandro Paul to thank for those amazing curves. It's actually Affair, one of his insanely beautiful scripts. You can check it out on veer. There's more treats both at Justin's site and Veer.
