Guerrilla typography: 30 amazing photos of type in the wild
Font Sunday is a Twitter phenomenon that's getting typophiles around the globe sharing pictures of fonts seen in the wild. Richard Garside of fontpicker.net hunts down his favourites.
25. Do it yourself - Coffee
I've been bored on a train plenty of times, but @pylon_sean used the time well and doodled this beautiful collection of coffee inspired type.
26. Do it yourself - Fireworks
This photo by @nessdonnelly shows that you don't need to hire expensive sign writers. You can do it yourself and probably still sell plenty of fireworks.
27. Page one - Hemmingway
You might judge a book by its cover, but how's the typography on the first page? GraphicDesign& asked for people's favourite page ones and @jenniferleith sent in this great example.
28. Page one - Design Connoisseur
You'd expect a good page one from a book on type and this page tweeted by @twentysixtypes doesn't disappoint.
29. Logos - Fortnum & Mason
Some logos are just a symbol, but some like this logo tweeted by @bellamanfield rely on the qualities and feeling of the typeface to portray everything needed about the brand.
30. Logos - Marshall
This Marshall logo tweeted by @mwkdesigns shows again that sometimes all you need is a good font to make an iconic brand.
This is just a small selection of the Font Sunday pictures from weeks gone by, but Font Sunday is best if you take part so please check out the hash tag #FontSunday to see what the theme will be and start posting your own font pictures.
