Check out some highlights from our fabulous type and lettering tour of Coney Island this morning with @ultrasparky instagram.com/p/Bk3SQrxDkK8/ @SVAContinuingEd

@MarkFonts @ultrasparky After this morning I think we’d all HIGHLY recommend it. Fabulous tour of type, lettering, and above all great New York history.

@ultrasparky @SVATypeLab Oh could I have crashed????

@gtypefoundry Also note how the Anna Esposito type begins as a slab and ends with more rounded serifs. Talk about a lazy sign maker!

@SVATypeLab @frerejones @SVAContinuingEd That NH lig is a bit unnecessary when it's surrounded by all those gappy combos.

Highlights from yesterday's walking tour of lower Manhattan with Tobias @Frerejones. Now we sketch! @SVAContinuingEd #timespacecommunity

The always innovative Mark Richardson @Superfried came up with a great branding solution for TRIPOM, a medical resource for students. Check it out! @HOWbrand ow.ly/NWP230kJaOk
