Support @FontLiBeirut to raise funds for #BeirutBlast victims. I submitted a few designs—V below—& backed the @Indiegogo project! Curated by @arabictype. Printed in #Beirut—300 glyphs—157 #designers—1 #font. #BeirutExplosion #LettersofHope #FontLiBeirut igg.me/at/FontLiBeiru…

Lots of amazing designers helped on short notice for @arabictype’s project to help raise more funds for those affected by the the explosion in Beirut. One of the glyphs I submitted is in this post (V, top). I recognize @letterror’s E (lower). Avail soon! #Beirut #LettersOfHope

Part of what my day looks like, today. Researching for a font engineering project to work out some ideas of what's possible. #typedesignerlife #fontengineering #fontdesign #typedesign #musicfonts #musicianlife #apple #macos9 #fonts
