by sbrothier
& 3 others
Our goal is to create high-quality fonts which stand in a unique class of their own, and which will serve as a good base for any designer project whether it be web, print, t-shirt design, logo etc.
Every week, a new and totally unique font will be rolled out of production, which you can easily buy or download free of charge. To stay posted on the latest available fonts from our foundry, you can subscribe to our RSS feed.

Wallpaper* Magazine | Sex Issue: Type Tart Cards |
by sbrothier
& 1 other
Tart cards are the means by which many London prostitutes advertise their services. Step into almost any central London phone box and you can contemplate up to 80 cards inviting you to be tied, teased, spanked or massaged.
Even if a police crackdown, the internet and the increasing use of mobile phones suggest their days are numbered, tart cards are still so pervasive they are now regarded as items of accidental art and have something of a cult following. Once on the periphery of design, tart cards have influenced the work of many mainstream artists such as Royal Academician Tom Phillips and Sex Pistols designer Ray and Nils Stevenson.

If your web browser is up to snuff, you’ll see Graublau Sans Web for headings, subheads, and appropriate examples in this specimen page. If not, refer to CSS @font-face support. Please note: IE supports @font-face via fonts converted to .EOT, but because conversion is a hassle I have skipped it in this example. ↩

Combining Cufón and @font-face • CSS & (X)HTML • Kilian Valkhof
by sbrothier
& 3 others
veryone wants @font-face to work everywhere, but as it stands, it only works in Safari and the upcoming versions of Firefox and Opera. In this article I’ll show you how to use Cufón only if we can’t load the font through other, faster methods.
