Ysobel fonts

Nimrod is (secretly) one of my favorite type families. I used it on my father’s memorial booklet (he loved reading the daily newspaper). And Ysobel is a more modern interpretation in the same genre.

Newspaper (and publication design-friendly) Ysobel is now available as a superset thru Monotype. It was a collaborative design project with Robin Nicholas at the helm; Delve Withrington and Alice Savoie all making it work.

More details here.

Here’s an interview with Alice Savoie at i love typography.

And drop by Delve Fonts, where one can – for a limited time – snag a copy of Delve Withrington’s free type teaser, Blasphemy. And do check out the nifty Tilden Sans. I know Delve has some cool stuff up his sleeve (I’ve seen some of it), get on his newsletter mailing list for updates.
