Swiss type foundry, Lineto, have just released this specimen of their Replica font. Designed by Norm and released in 2008, Replica is one of the more forward thinking fonts to be released in recent years. The 24 page specimen offers insights on the fonts development, using conversation between the designers as sample text. Printed in a limited edition of 500, it’s now available from the Lineto website.
Dublin studio, Detail, have just updated their site with a selection of new projects. I especially like their work for the Science Gallery.
Anthony Burrill at Kemistry Gallery

For In a New Place, prolific designer Anthony Burrill has takes a marked step away from the 2D type-based print work for which he is best known. The exhibition presents Anthony’s exploration of industrial processes and materials with large scale laser–cut perspex pieces as well as digital prints. The subject of the exhibition focusses upon archetypal forms of nature, from rainbows to thunderstorms, all within Burrill’s uncomplicated and distinctive geometric style. By applying these man-made processes to the natural theme, Burrill shows us his vision of a modern natural world, an industrial interpretation of nature.
In a New Place runs at London’s Kemistry Gallery until September 5.
