CSS-driven WordPress website design for author and poet Yuri Kageyama.

So, due to some wackiness, the name of the free fonts created for Onitsuka Tiger were changed from Kihachiro Geometric Sans and Kihachiro Swash to Kirimomi Geometric Sans and Kihachiro Swash a few days after launch. The dust is settled and the fonts are currently burning up the charts over at MyFonts, where they are available for FREE!

I’m happy to announce that my type foundry Wordshape has also partnered with Fontspring and our fonts will be available from them soon!

I wrote the foreword for a new book titled Type Player 2 published in the Americas by Gingko Press and in Asia by Sandu Media.

Wordshape fonts are now being carried by FontDeck.

Wordshape fonts are now being distributed by ITC/Monotype.

We’ll be attending Zine’s Mate / The Tokyo Art Book Fair under our guise as Wordshape, type foundry/publisher/distributor on the 16th, 17th & 18th of July at 3331 Arts in Chiyoda. More info here.

The Wordshape booth will have loads of rare and hard-to-find books and projects published by Microcosm, Sound Screen Design, A Few Warm Stones, Seibundo Shinkosha (Idea Magazine), Hot/Cold Press, Dill Pickle Club, Bathysphere Books, Scout Books and more! Come on by!

My new typefaces for Onitsuka Tiger, Kirimomi Swash and Kirimomi Sans are now available via MyFonts for FREE.

Kiyonori Muroga and I wrote the introduction for Idea Magazine’s latest book, Design of Manga, Anime & Light Novels, available here. The book is a collection of exciting packaging and editorial design for otaku-centric endeavors.

I’ll be presenting at TypeCon in New Orleans on Saturday July 9th at 2pm.
