Another fine free resource, in the form of my main fetish… grids.
This time a series of 4 grid layouts set on a 210mm x 210mm page. As always, they are Illustrator CS4 EPS files.
The following grid structures are included: 2×1, 2×3, 3×3 and 5×1. They have 15mm borders / margins on all edges and all gutters are 7mm. Enjoy.

… and just when you thought the lesson in understanding the anatomical names of typeface ‘parts’ had finished! Here is part 2 of the exercise.
I have decided to start a new resources category, which will hopefully be of some use to you guys! The first of these resources is an Illustrator CS4 page grid template.
It’s for my favourite grid structure, the 3×5 grid, and is fitted to an A4 page. It has a 15mm border side and top, 20mm bottom, with 4mm gutters. Enjoy.

Welcome back. This lesson explains in very simple form, the anatomy names (many of which relate to human characteristics) of characters which makeup a typeface.
This post was inspired heavily by Jim Williams, design lecturer at Staffodshire Uni, thankyou Jim.
Happy New Year! Even if we are in month number 3!
The first post of the year will start a series of posts, which can be added to and used as a source of typographic reference. Before I start though, I make no apologies for potential incorrect apostrophe placement! So, without further ado, welcome to…
Ok, so it’s a couple of evenings late, but… I have finally finished Grid Face typeface. More than this I have completed 2 weights of the font!
But what fun would it be if I was not to make you wander half way around the web to find it?

As the anticipation mounts, I can quite happily say that the Grid Face typeface will be published this evening… so peel your eyes!
Just a quickie to let everybody know, that today I became a member of the Typographic Circle. So I’m really rather chuffed about that, and hope to become quite an active member!
