I am going to AtypI in St. Petersburg, Russia to give my talk on Contextual Alternatives in roman text face design. I am very happy about this! :-)

In the meantime as I prepare, I wonder: do you have any advice for me about St. Petersburg? AtypI? Cusine? Pre-AtypI tourisim? Anything else?

Feel free to reply here or to contact me privately.

Thanks!

My first book design - complete with a faux marbling job.

I am interested in any comments praising or otherwise.

This is an obviously faux old-book; complete with a faux marbling job done with screenprinting.

I designed this from afar and the good folks at Objective Press Canada published - well really - made this with their own hands. It uses P22’s - LTF Calson Pro Long.
