5.0 out of 5 stars Hand Made Type 16 Oct 2011
Format:Paperback
I bought this book as one of my tutors at college recommended it. The book contains a variety of different ways to create type and helps to get the reader thinking more about how to be creative with type. There are also a number of different tutorials showing how to create some of the examples in the book which can be very handy. Over all i thought this book was well laid out and is very useful if you're looking for ideas or just want to appreciate the different ways type can be created.

5.0 out of 5 stars Font Fetish! 17 May 2013
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
A great insight into the world of creative font & type. This also doubles as a guide into how to make the type, triggering your left brain into an orgasm of creativity. I would say this & 'playful type 2' make an excellent inspirational reference into your personal library. Get it & get the know how.
