The Lost Type Co-Op
‘founded with the intention of providing unique and quality fonts based on a pay-what-you-want model. All designers get 100% of the donations their font receives.’
The Lost Type Co-Op is the brain child of Tyer Galpin and Riley Cran.
Peruse Lost Type’s fonts here. And pay what you feel the fonts are worth.

Chandler in Oz
‘inspiring homes with heart’
Magazines are great sources for inspiration. Not as permanent as a logo – or brand – periodicals have a timer on them. After a few months, they’re gone.
A good newsstand is a treasure trove of the experimental, conservative, international, concise, good, bad, ugly. I drop by whatever I can find – even the Barney Noble chain if one is not nearby – just for a shot in the arm.
Earlier this year I spotted Chandler 42 being used in an Australian interiors pub. Alexendria-based Inside Out is using my typewriter type as a nice accent throughout their pages.
Here’s a few snaps (taken in my new home office – sleepy dog in background).
