While we’re on the subject of typography…

123Klan has been one of my favourite agency in terms of modern type and graffiti. The French duo known only as Scien and Klor started the studio in 1992 out of the love for graffiti and became one of the known names in the graphic design community. Their client list includes the likes of Sony, Carhartt and Stussy.

Nowadays 123klan still does live graffiti exhibits around the world, but also produces books, customises toys and generally makes the world a better place to be.

123klan’s own move from the streets to the graphics studio began with their introduction to the iconic typography of designer Neville Brody, famous for his architecture-like font work on The Face and many other projects.

A love Affair with Typography

noor — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 02:09:29 +0000

I love typography. I do. It’s text as art. Typography was my first step in graphic design even before I knew I wanted to do design. Hence my love with typography goes way back.

So I thought I’d share this love with you. Here you go; possibly the best of typography collective in Flickr groups.

Typography and Lettering

Typography in our daily lives. Mostly un-deliberate works of art by unwitting artists of other fields.

I Love Typography

Typography in design.

Typophile

Deliberate type art by designers or people in similar functions.

Folk Typography

Another set of un-deliberate type art by even more nondescript artisans. This time, with a retro and folksy feel to it.

Calligraphy

Taking it a step up with intricate, hand-crafted type art.

Fonts & Typography

Focus is more on fonts and font faces as key aspects of the design.

Found Type

One more typography-in-our-daily-lives collective.

Handmade Typography & Lettering

More unique hand made typographical treatments.

Typenuts

And for the last set, not a Flickr group but a gallery typographical wallpaper designs. Go download some if you’re a typelover like me.

There you go. My love for typography. Thought I’d share them with you.

Straight to the point, one button navigation. Some of the featured works are really random, really funny and what I’d call “idea-food.” Hop on to www.ffffound.com
