Seasonal Reminder:
If you need cool gifts for the Berlinophile in your life, we’ve got you covered. Berlin Typography and Plattenbau Berlin (both from Prestel) and the Berlin Type Map (from @bluecrowmedia) are in print and available from the usual places.
We have some exciting news:
Berlin Typography, the book, is now in its second printing. A huge thank you to everyone who has bought a copy in the last three years.
Plattenbau fans take note: there is a great new documentary on @ARTEde that features some fantastic aerial footage of Berlin’s Plattenbauten (plus a brief appearance from yours truly). Check it out here:

@Sparrersway Nice! Was just in Stuttgart last week, but didn't make it to Bad Cannstatt this time around and thus completely missed this sign. But it's always great to see a well-maintained (and still working) neon sign.
I saw the new paperback edition of @hoyer_kat 's 'Beyond the Wall' in Waterstones the other day, and I am now slightly obsessed by that funky 70s tiyle font that isn't Pump.
Is it an authentic typeface from the DDR?

@sumarumi Thank you for the kind offer; but we’re already there … I just haven’t mentioned it by name because when I do my posts have a way of disappearing. Look for berlintypography…
