Typographica: Our Favorite Typefaces of 2012

I’m honored to be included in Stephen Coles’ annual compendium of new typefaces for the year. Not as a type designer, but as type user. My selection was Hoefler & Frere-Jones’ Idlewild, a beautiful wide display font family.

Other notable inclusions are the layered diversity of Quintet, the roman typeface Eskapade with its “fully realized Fraktur companion”, the dually print- and screen-friendly Turnip, and more than 50 other typefaces.
