Haiku Monkey

I took my recent release, m7, and made it big and blocky. I’m releasing it here for free. Use it, embed it, change it, do whatever you like; just don’t sell it or sell any modifications of it. Let me know if you make something cool with it!

Download the m11 family (regular and italic)

My new slab serif family, m7, is available now at MyFonts.com:

Apparently word has gotten out, because over the last week you all are downloading Aerohop from MyFonts.com at a dizzying pace. Well, if you haven’t already picked it up, the whole Aerohop family is now free. Go get it. And let me know if you do something cool with it.

I’ve just finished version 1.0 of a new, open source font family called Designation. It’s released under the SIL Open Font License, the gist being that you can use the fonts for any purpose, you can modify the fonts however you like (as long as you release the modification under the same license), and you can distribute the fonts (but not sell them).

The fonts (regular, italic, bold, and bold italic) have a large set of glyphs, including many diacritics, logic/math symbols, and Greek characters.

I’ll be setting up a dedicated page for the fonts soon, to track updates and other news.

Download the font files (.otf) here.

Download the source files (.vfb) here.

The Typodarium folks sent me a free copy of their 2010 calendar (incredibly nice of them! I would’ve bought one), complete with Banyan as the face of May 8. Woot!

I’ve re-worked Lavoisier, tweaking many of the glyphs, and completely redoing the sidebearings and kerning. Take it for a spin! Visit the Lavoisier page to download the font and/or the source files.

Just released over at MyFonts.com!

So I’ve been working on and off for a year on a text face that I’m tentatively calling “Modus.”

The idea of creating a good italic for this is daunting enough so that the font family may never see the light of day. But, in any event, working on the regular version has been incredibly instructive.
