Beaujon by @connordavenpo is here via #SharpTypeBeta! An homage to the great French printing types, Connor's sensitivity as a designer is clear in his work, which convincingly makes the argument that true aesthetic judgment only comes w/ a deep understanding of type history

Ah yes, the ornate serifs and ball terminals of Helvetica, made with hand and brush, promoted lovingly by the PR team at Monotype and rigorously verified by the editors at Print. printmag.com/typography/mono…

Today we publish Derek Jarman's only piece of narrative fiction, Through The Billboard Promised Land Without Ever Stopping. Written in 1971 it is a surreal, fabular, lyrical work – a literary fairytale acid-trip road movie hybrid – the energies of which influenced his later work.

In regards to the pre-modernist Grotesk this is ideologically more accurate than many «slick» revivals (no offence) — embracing cultural confusion, making the exception the norm and elevating indecisiveness to a conceptual level.
