Love these islets #ScreenshotSaturday #GameDev
There are just so many amazing things to read and learn and do. Wish I could bottle this feeling for more discouraging days.

I want to study Japanese design more deeply.

Wondering if I know anybody here who shares this interest and would be willing to chat.

As Monotype continues to minimize and/or alter Tobias' role in the story of Gotham, it seems like a good time to highlight this blog post written by @onpaperwings , which goes into detail about Tobias’ role as Gotham’s designer. Here at Frere-Jones Type, we will always give proper credit to designers where credit is due. https://frerejones.com/blog/designing-gotham

Daily posts are working well, but I want to stay quiet on social (naturally). Simple end-of-week summary feels OK. Reposting this from last Friday, to start a thread that I hope to continue.

🌱 Summary of the week:

- Take time to study / woodworking + craft
- Multitasking hurts / constraints
- Preparation helps / walk around the hillside
- Chunk big stuff up / use a work surface
- Read aloud, to hear / Le Guin advice
