Behemoth and the designer.

I bought FF Trixie Cyrillic in the mid ‘90s for packaging and magazine #design projects.
30 years later I now connect with Erik, the designer in ways I never dreamed possible. Right here: @letterror

A #typewriter #typeface with “17 million points” in the design.
10,824 #glyphs.

Long live #FontFont. Long live Neither Confirm Nor Deny. 🙌

Just reminiscing with @fhardwig about the type specimen websites we made for #FontFont back in 2008. It was the first time we got to work together, chatting over his sketches between talks at the TYPO conference in Berlin. The FF DIN site is gone, but somehow Monotype kept these running:
