a wood typeface break.
“There’s a story to be told in the heart of every piece of wood.”
Jim Sherradan “Hamilton Wood Type : A History in the Headlines”
The bottom image is a type design by Juliet Shen. She developed it with the Tulalip Tribe in Washington State (whom I also had the pleasure of working with long ago when I was @ Mithun) in an effort to help preserve the 500-year-old ‘Lushootseed’ language, which at one point was so close to extinction that it was spoken by only 5 elders. Incredible!
