Femme Type: A book celebrating women’s work in the type industry. By @femmetype. Is getting restocked ready for January 2022!! 😃 Born out of the lack of representation observed within the design industry, the Femme Type book highlights the work produced by over 40 talented women in the type space. Diluting the pool within a seemingly male-dominated niche..until now. US-Domestic shipping is now available too! Which means much cheaper prices and faster delivery times (3-5 days). You can preorder here  >> www.femmetypebook.com Shipping January 2022. - - - - - #femmetype #goodtype #lettering #handlettering #typedesign #typebook #typographybook #typelettering #typography #strengthinletters https://www.instagram.com/p/CXRNN-PLtJw/?utm_medium=tumblr

Please meet our 150th Guest Curator this week, @solacilike! 🎉 Laci Jordan is a multidisciplinary designer, illustrator, Creative Director and the true definition of a modern-day renaissance woman. Laci’s work concentrates on color, pop culture, the representation of marginalized people and the intersectionality that exists amongst all of these spheres. Her works act as a portal into the world as she sees it. From her use of vibrant colors to her exploration of a world filled with captivating people of color, her work reflects her deep commitment to creating authentic and unapologetic portrayals of contemporary culture. As a result, throughout the course of her career, her art has been commissioned by brands such as Bentley, Disney, Google, Jordan Brand, Motown Records, Nike, Refinery29, REI, Spotify, Sweetgreen, Ulta, United Airlines, and many more. Laci was born and raised in Huntsville, Alabama but currently resides in Los Angeles. “If you try to put Laci in a box, you’ll have an incredibly difficult time.” - Essence Magazine With that said, TAKE IT AWAY, LACI! - - - - - #goodtypeguestcurator #goodtype #graphicdesign #strengthinletters #guestcurator #artistnetwork #digitalartist #muralist #alwayshandpaint #artistnetworkprogram #typography #typedesign #lacijordan https://www.instagram.com/p/CXCH9G-JWL_/?utm_medium=tumblr

Please meet our Guest Curator of the week @alextilolibre! "Hello! My name is Luis Alejandro Cruz Castillo, but you can call me Alex. I was born and raised in the Dominican Republic and currently reside in the United States, Oregon. I am an illustrator who studies graphic design as a career and now I have more than 10 years of experience designing, illustrating, and creating for big brands, although I must say that my greatest portfolio and treasure are my personal projects because they speak more about me than the projects that I do for others (I invite you to see my profile to see what I'm talking about). @alextilolibre My obsession with letters and drawing makes me take on the challenge of creating and illustrating on any surface. "Creativity consists of designing with the mind, but creating with the heart." With that said, TAKE IT AWAY, ALEX! #goodtype #strengthinletters #goodtypeguestcurator #lettering #handlettering #typography #graphicdesign #calligraphy https://www.instagram.com/p/CVVMjT_rEey/?utm_medium=tumblr

Mural and print by @freddiedentonstudio. Freddie Denton is an artist and designer based in Leeds, UK. Words below by Freddie: ・・・ ONWARDS & UPWARDS. “I’m proud to reveal my latest and largest mural in Leeds, UK. I wanted to paint sometime bold, uplifting & iconographical to cheer everyone on, & up ! It spans 150ft wide and took over 50 cans of spray paint, many litres of paint and a few weeks of intense work up and down a scissor lift to complete. I’d love to paint more big walls like this, any takers please DM me !” With assistance by: @wild_they @woodmanpads @entheos_media - - - - - #goodtype #strengthinletters #typography #lettering #handlettering #mural #muralist #streetart #streetartist #alwayshandpaint #onwardsandupwards https://www.instagram.com/p/CQq4ym2Lsmc/?utm_medium=tumblr

Beautiful work by @winkandwonder. Words below by Joanna: ・・・ The uniqueness of you is a beautiful blend of who you are and where you come from. Be true to yourself. Nobody can take your power from you. ⚡️🌈🖤 Support for the AAPI community has been flooding my feed and I feel a profound sense of gratitude and love. I’m Filipino and proud 👏🏼 of 👏🏼 it. 🇵🇭 I’m part of the AAPI community and I stand with you. My family immigrated to the U.S. when I was 5 years old and there’s been a duality to my existence that I know many can relate to. I’m too Americanized to feel at home when I visit the Philippines and too Filipino to really feel American. I felt out of place for years and thought I *had* to assimilate to be accepted — play small and don’t cause a scene, pls thx. As I’ve grown older, I realized that if I continue to look to others to fully accept me I’ll be looking forever. I honor my heritage. I celebrate my culture. I speak my truth. I reclaim my power. I don’t have to break down my lineage. I don’t have to teach you how to speak my language. I don’t have to convince you to like our cuisine. I don’t have to explain anything so you can feel better. I can if I want to, but that’s my power and grace to give. If you can’t accept who I am or where I come from that’s a *you* problem. It’s not my work to do. My parents sacrificed everything to build a new life here and give their kids more than they could’ve hoped for. I’m eternally grateful and proud of that. To the AAPI community: I hope you stand in your power. Break the rules, push the boundaries, play bigger than big. ❤️ https://www.instagram.com/p/CPp7w-zJF3m/?utm_medium=tumblr
