i’ve always been in love with the Sauna font family, since when i bought one of my first books Read Naked, back in the time. in my ongoing project Ladies&Types i’m trying to show some of the most influential and elegant contemporary types and it’s such a pleasure when it happens i drop a line to the designers and they’are just nice and excited by my explorations. so if you like Agathe, the sauna lady, don’t forget to go and see all the fantastic stuff the Underware guys designed in the past few years.

WIP, new font on the way.

Angeline, hanging from an exquisite garamond ampersand is the representative of july in my cal chicks&types.

hello Gemma!

G is the fresh new entry in the Chicks&Types crew. she’s presenting a wonderful typeface named Targa (which in italian means litterally “car plate”, this is where the font takes inspiration) made in by the florentine designer and close friend Cosimo Lorenzo Pancini.

You cant preview the font here, straight from zetafonts type foundry.

also, May is the month of the fantastique Kendra, who gave her personal permission to be downloaded in HiRes here!

or… there’s always the option to get the full calendar from the shop, here.

Say welcome to Carla, first lady of the C&T2012. #type #illustration #music (Taken with instagram)
