Hey! I kind of gave up on Twitter a while back, but I'm even more uncomfortable with the way it seems to be going. So, I'm not monitoring this account these days. If you want news or whatever from me, please visit my site typesupply.com and sign up for my mailing list.

I'm so proud of this project––the first big one I've been a part of as UX design editor here at @NatGeo! We dive into the incredible details of Tut's treasures, beautifully photographed and modeled in 3D by @SandroVannini. The dazzling type & ornaments are by Tal @typesupply 🤩
The stunning discovery of King Tutankhamun's tomb 100 years ago opened a window into Egypt's golden past. Now the world will get a new look at the young pharaoh's riches. on.natgeo.com/3yQ2xnw
I drew a whole bunch of typefaces, lettering and ornaments for this incredible issue and the stunning accompanying digital stories. I'll be talking about this massive project (including the tale of a particularly pesky comma) at @MICA_GD in November.
The 1922 discovery of King Tutankhamun’s tomb became a global media sensation—and captured the imagination of millions. Learn more about King Tut's treasures in our November issue: on.natgeo.com/3D70CO4
Do I have any followers from the @NFL? The league has a very overdue invoice for a heavily NDAed project and all of my contacts have left the company. My DMs are open.

I have a new R&D typeface for sale: Epoxy. It is (I'm sure no one will disagree with this) a Neo-90s, Quasi-Industrial, Postpostpostmodern sans serif typeface. I made it because… I wanted to make it.

My boss told me that I could replace my very tired and ailing eight year old iMac if I finished some new fonts. So, here, in the late afternoon of a Wednesday, is Epoxy. It's… fonts. I don't know how to explain it.

I sat next to Chris for four years at @houseindustries. and we collaborated closely on the catalogs. He is the most versatile illustrator I have ever seen. He is flabbergastingly talented AND he's a wonderful person. Hire him. Hire him. Hire him. Hire him. Hire him. Hire him.
