News and blog - The Foundry Types

Words and pictures

At The Foundry Types, we’re deeply passionate about all aspects of design, in particular, typography and type design. Inspired by unexpected objects; a stamp, a street sign, a quirky printout error or just a great piece of design – so here we blog about them.
