At this point, probably best to follow me on Bluesky (and/or Threads and/or Mastodon) ✌️ bsky.app/profile/simple…

@cjchilvers @p_millerd 🙏🙇‍♂️

@p_millerd Oh, and @simplebits definitely.

whats the best non-amazon and non-bookstore book buying experience you've had?

🙌🤓

@JoernZander Top or bottom? 🤓

@simplebits It screams "I want to be on a T-Shirt"! In exact these colors! Please!

Long way to go with this one, but it’s already taking shape. #sbfonts

Measure twice, cut once. Learn it, know it, live it. New tee now available using our Paint Factory #sbfonts. simplebits.shop/products/measu…

If zig-zaggy crossbars are too much, #sbfonts Hubano has boring alternates.

@amyhoodlum 🙌😎✨

@simplebits The lil' swirl on the 3!!

Our latest typeface, Hubano, inspired by Cuban cigar box lettering is now available. All-caps, extended language support, two styles: Regular and Rough. It was a blast zig-zagging those crossbars! #sbfonts

I'll often design a physical good as a specimen for these type releases, and for Hubano we made matchbooks—but instead of matches, they have 10 plantable, wildflower seed sticks. I'll probably throw one in with any goods order for a bit ;-) #marketing simplebits.shop/products/hubano

My new typeface is out today! Hubano is a decorative display serif inspired by lettering on a Cuban cigar box. Wacky crossbars (but also boring alternates). For the next week get 15% off with code CROSSBAR #sbfonts simplebits.shop/products/hubano
