Anatomy of a Typeface

May 16th, 2008 · 2 Comments

I was browsing the top appreciated bodies of work on the Behance Network and came across this gem:

Sweedish designer, Björn Johansson, posted 3 explorations into the anatomy of a typeface. His technical detail is exquisite!  I love it, I wish I had thought of this when my type teacher asked us to ‘design’ an 18-inch tall lowercase garamond g letterform. Next time!
