NEW: Forma DJR Arabic from @djrrb, designed by Khajag Apelian and Wael Morcos, is the Arabic companion to DJR’s revival of Forma, inheriting design features from the Latin, such as the inky, almost tactile quality and slight flaring at the end of strokes. fontstand.com/fonts/forma-dj…

Replying to @matt_yow @djrrb
Perfect example of going back and tweaking a logo we’d already drawn so it complimented the typeface details. Corner radius love affair!

Been waiting to publish this one just to tag @djrrb on the Forma use case 😎
☀️ New brand for Daylight ☀️ Warm worked with Daylight to update their identity and web presence. The previous Klein Blue coldness ran counter to the values we identified in the discovery phase. So we went Very Orange, then deep on the details. Full case study link below ↓

NEW: Glyptic DJR from @djrrb is another contemporary revival of a 19th century original. With the addition of lowercase, new alternate forms, and an emphasis on angularity, it honors the original design, preserving its rigidity as well as its eclecticism. fontstand.com/fonts/glyptic-…

Letterer/font maniac side note: it's one of the first uses of the very lovely designed Indoor Kid typeface, from the minds of @djrrb (a fantastic type designer who runs a Font-of-the-month club) and his friend Ellis Bojar. You can find it here: djr.com/notes/indoor-kid-fon…

NEW: Forma DJR Mono by @djrrb, a monospaced companion to the original Forma revival, preserves the subtly rounded corners and tapered stems that evoke the physicality of ink on paper while keeping the cleanliness and precision of midcentury design classic. fontstand.com/fonts/forma-dj…
