Typography Thursday: 12/3

December 3rd, 2009  |  typography

There’s a bunch of catching up to do after TypeTh took the week off for Thanksgiving. Let’s get right to it.


Neutra Face/Lady Gaga parody – One of the best type-inspired, pop song paradies I’ve seen in… well, never. There aren’t too many out there. But this one is awesome. You can download the mp3. Here’s the typeface that inspired the song. “You can read my Neutra Face, even if it’s bold italic” – brilliant! (Thanks to Meg Canada)

Ampersandwich Tee – SimpleBits’ Dan Cederholm created this truly delicious shirt. (Thanks to Nicole de Beaufort)

Web Design is 95% Typography – “95% of the information on the web is written language. It is only logical to say that a web designer should get good training in the main discipline of shaping written information, in other words: Typography.” There’s a great list of resources at the end of this post too. (Thanks to Pat Kuntz)

The Best Free Fonts of 2009 – Really nice round-up by Henry Jones. Nice to see some of my favorites on the list.
