If you missed the newsletÂter, this month’s FontÂFont release was one of FontShop’s most excitÂing in years: FF Meta Serif. Yves Peters wrote an excelÂlent piece for FontShop Benelux on the new typeÂface. The artiÂcle, with quotes from the creÂators — SpiekÂerÂmann (the old master), Schwartz (the new master), and SowÂersby (the impresÂsive newÂcomer) — is a rare look into the process of colÂlabÂoÂraÂtive type design.
The bloÂgosÂphere is buzzing about FF Meta Serif. You can find a runÂdown of covÂerÂage on Spiekermann’s own journal.
Update: FF Meta Serif is the curÂrent FeaÂtured Face on the popÂuÂlar forum Typophile, gracÂing the dynamic homeÂpage backÂground and all topic titles.
