Sebagai mahasiswa desain, tentunya kita butuh reverensi dari berbagai situs atau blog. Namun menemukan referensi yang benar-benar bermanfaat tidak semudah membalikkan telapak tangan. Kita sering mendapati situs-situs web atau blog yang tidak bermutu yang hanya akan menghabiskan waktu kita. Untuk itulah saya akan membagikan beberapa blog tentang tipografi hasil  yang mungkin akan bermanfaat.

Friends of Type features original typographic design and lettering – strong fresh visual content – practically every day. The thing I enjoy the most about Friends of Type is that posts don’t over indulge on each great piece oftypography shown. It is what it is. A piece of beauty.

Just so we are all the same page, this is not a blog. Letmans work is artform and a craft. His personalised style reflects his personality of quirky and fun. Here is a exert from Letmans website which pretty much sums up this wonderful talent.

“He is cuckoo about letters, he loves them, so far is certain. He is also one of those fellows who can read a chunky novel in a couple of hours, but that’s a different story. His designs are transparent, leaving room to breathe. Them letters got things to say, they are so clear it tickles your eye and make you blink. What is this colourful craft ? Letman’s letters are curious. His handmade style fits the boundries of typography like a universe on itself by lashing out to illustration, graffiti and graphic design. Letters are free entities to him. They are clear and cunning. Together they stand strong.”
The Ministry of Type is a blog by Aegir Hallmundur which provides a absolute passion for all things about type, typography, lettering, calligraphy and other related things. The Ministry of Type has huge variety of detailed blogs with lots of links. If you have time to read about typography, I highly recommend it.

Based in Barcelona, Alex Trochut’s illustrations, designs and typography are vibrant and wonderfully unique. Alex Trochut’s client’s include the likes of Nike, The Rolling Stones, Nixon, British Airways and Coca-Cola so you can see immediately that he is a sort out typographical master.
