It took Rhett Dashwood several months to find the complete alphabet in Google Maps. You can find links to every single letter on his website. Very impressive!

Art Directors Against Futura Extra Bold Condensed

April 19th, 2009

“It’s time for Art Directors the world over to boycott the use of Futura Extra Bold Condensed – the most over-used typeface in advertising history. Destroy the Great Satan of clichés and the Little Satan of convenience, and rally to the cause of a better type selection.
Please fill out the enclosed petition and mail it to our headquarters. It will be used to sway the opinion-makers of our industry toward our just and worthy cause.
Together, we can whip this mother.”

Really??? That was a common opinion in 1992?
These 2 pages were designed by Jerry Ketel are were published in the 1992′s TDC Typography 13.

Fire Tagging by Ellis G

April 12th, 2009

Ellis Gallagher is a New York street artist who likes to set his tags on fire. Burn baby, burn!
Of course this isn’t a new graffiti style. Daniel Gonzalezo his pieces are actually even more impressive. But if you’re in LA, you can go an see the work of Ellis Gallagher at the Hollowood show at the Carmichael Gallery till the end of April. It is actually a group show of the Neo-Con Collective (Ellis Gallagher, Aakash Nihalani and Poster Boy) and Zeus.
I would go if I could.
