むっちゃこのトーク楽しみ！エイバルトのデザイン、本当に大好き。当時オランダ美大に留学中の友達の先生だった縁で、運よくも個人的にも少し交流があったのだけど、本当に親切でお茶目な人だった。もし今もご存命だったら、どんな書体を作られていたんだろう。

Nice talk about Gerrit Noordzij by @letterror, just this quote referring to the legacy of the master: “No one has the right to touch this Rubik’s cube, because I am unable to put it back in place.” #FontstandCon2022 @Fontstand
