Custom Types, Jackson Alves

A tweet from @opentype (Ralf Hermann) pointed towards a beautiful video of @jackdzn (Jackson Alves) promoting his workshop. What an amazing type designer… and how wonderful to see a video of his craft!


Make sure to check out his site as well ~ such amazing work.

    glad you liked this – and I disagree, those traditions will never go! :) They will just change and evolve – traditional skills first, always, then onto new tools & techniques, new working methods and new media :)
