Design: Spin

Edition of 1000

Spin/Adventures in Typography 2 is serious and silly in equal measure (occasionally at the same time). The Spin team of Tony Brook, Claudia Klat and Jonathan Nielsen have embarked on a journey into typography’s darkest recesses.

Searching for the new and the surprising, they have made a series of experiments, by computer and by hand, that stretch the boundaries of typographic expression almost to breaking point.

Chapters in this 52pp journal include Alien: Future/Font: Lettuce/Letters; Helvetica Alt: Dr Frankenstein’s Helvetica; Helvetica est mort; and Tape Face. You have been warned.
