so+ba (a creative duo composed of Alex [so]nderegger and Susanna [ba]er) defines itself as Swiss made in Japan (!!) and are total pros in the line of art direction, illustration and editorial design and of course, typically inclined to use lots of typographic treatments mostly commissioned from the retail, fashion and cultural entities who ain’t fearing lots of edge..
The sheer size of their portfolio is a testament to both their ability to land clients and deliver the goods.

Juan Carlos Pagan is a designer, typographer, and painter who lives and works in New York City. Soon after graduating (Parson’s) he found himself compelled to explore all aspects of typography in great depth, using the written word and it’s structural manifestations to fuel the majority of his work.

El Studio (based in Scotland, kind of intriguing how they came up with this name) collaborates with all walk of professionals in the trade and delivers outstanding print work. Most of all, clean typography layouts. Really like their website and how they present their work in the lightbox.

Oh my! You’ve never seen something like this. This is the wackiest idea ever: HMF (Hand Made Font). But I mean, you know hand crafted and all. The collection is simply.. lack of words. See for yourself.

Just found the superb new website of House Industries one of the most prolific and creative font house out there who continue to have a considerable impact on the world of design.
Luv the rotating samples on the index. Really inspires to go play with typography. The 2nd level pages are gloriously well designed with a prominent space given to try out their fonts in context.
Must see!
