United has been out for a couple of years now and I’m starting to see it just about every time I leave the house. It is quickly becoming my most ubiquitous typeface. Some recent uses I’ve noticed:
Mass Appeal launched a new design with United doing heavy lifting along with Kris Sowersby’s National. It looks sharp. (Thanks to Christian Schwartz for telling me about this.)
Nike is running a new TV spot, developed by Wieden & Kennedy, featuring some huge United.
And, closer to home, I saw this poster for the Charm City Roller Girls a couple of months ago. I don’t know who designed it, but it is one of my favorite uses of United to date.
Burbank was recently named one of Typographica’s favorite typefaces of 2007. Yay!
Erik van Blokland sent me this photo from Holland:
That’s my Burbank being used in a campaign to promote a national reading week. As it turns out, this stuff is in bookshops and schools across the country!
If this gives you the urge to buy Burbank, head right over here.
After a long, long development process, I’m happy to unveil my new website. I hope you like it.
Samples of my typeface design work can be seen here and samples of my lettering work can be seen here. You can read all about me here.
I’ll post updates to the news section as events on the ground demand them. Subscribe to the feed if you want to keep up to date.
