Making charts with a font

May 14th, 2012 | Filed under: Typography | Add a Comment »

Thanks to CR Blog for this incredible tip: FF Chartwell allows you to actually type your charts as a font, using OpenType ligatures. This is brilliant stuff. I guarantee you I’ll be shelling out $75–$130 for Chartwell in the near future.

Metropolis, by Josip Kelava, is nice. Love what he does with it in the type samples.

Bruno, by Morris Pinewood Stockholm

I’m a sucker for grid-based text in rubrics, and this design for Bruno, a Swedish art/architecture/fashion/design magazine is a pretty stellar example of that. Well played, Morris Pinewood Stockholm. Well played.

(PS — go to the Morris Pinewood link above. I dare you not to love their work.)
