Le Havre Width. Take time to play with this loveable putty of fonts.










Le Havre Width is the loveable putty of fonts. Stretch it. Squish it. Squeeze it. Whichever way you play with it, you’re bound to find hours of fun ahead.

This avant-garde typeface family has six distinct weights--each one including a set of four different widths. It’s randomized rhythm also includes selectable glyphs for customization, enabling you to bounce plenty of ideas around for diverse logotypes as well as for specific looks focused on a single width.


Looking for even more fun with this geometric sans? Try adding in some of the alternate ligatures, or use the two different art deco styles included with the font. The all-around whimsical nature of Le Havre Width is perfect for toys, posters, T-shirts, cards, and anywhere else where fun is the name of the game.

Guerilla Marketing

Just recently, I was wondering why we don’t see more of... ...this... ...this... ...this... ...this... and this here in the states. Yes, guerilla marketing. As you can see, all of these images don’t have their point of origin here in the USA. Then, I got my answer . Seriously, when looking at few of these campaigns, although they are clever and probably very effective, some of them seem destructive and disruptive. I think that American advertisers recognize this, and understood that American culture doesn’t have time or allow disruptions or annoyances, making it a tactic that is rarely used stateside. There are also probably some legal, or rather enforcement reasons that make it more common overseas. Any other thoughts? Everything with the exception of AXE via adgoodness . AXE via ibeliveinadv .

DevChatt

I had the chance to talk to a group of developers at DevChatt 11. I spoke on webfonts. The talk was recorded, so hopefully I can put the audio up soon. The presentation is available here: I am very happy about my move to Chattanooga (in addition to moving here to be with my wife). There are some tremendous things happening, and a very strong entrepreneurial spirit abounds. After attending DevChatt, I was inspired to brush off a few business ideas and I hope to develop these further. One is related to my core competency, typography, while the other is in a totally different field. I was also inspired by listening to Ale Paul and Luc De Groot in New York City this past week. Here are a few links to some inspiring local organizations: DevChatt CreateHere costarters.co Chattarati colab.is
