Quick announcement! Only 5 days until class begins! Our friends @letterformarchive in San Francisco are hosting a type design class where you can create your own font with Graham Bradley. If you’re a designer or lettering artist in the SF Bay Area, there is no better opportunity to learn type design than this course. With over ten evening classes you’ll gain a working knowledge of drawing, spacing, and producing a high-quality digital typeface. Wednesdays, Jan 30–Apr 3. Seats still available! Register: lettarc.org/events. Or swipe up in stories. Graham Bradley is a graphic designer and type designer. He creates brand identities, type, websites, and books for clients across the country. Previously, he was a typeface designer at Frere-Jones Type where he worked on Mallory and Retina, created specimens and illustrations, and developed custom tools. Graham is a graduate of the University of California, Berkeley and Type@Cooper. #typography #learntype #typelettering #typedesign #goodtype #letterformarchive #vectorize #bezier #anchorpoints #sf #bayarea #sanfrancisco #sfartist #typedesigner #learntoletter #typeworkshop #workshop https://www.instagram.com/p/BtETk2hHcri/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=15otti0qh0ub

Just… These are so nice. We love them.⁠ 'Bauhaus Postcards: Invitations to the First Exhibition' from @letterformarchive⁠ ⁠ Presented as a set of three copies each of the original 20 cards inside a giftable hardcover box, these bold, colorful postcards preserve a major early design statement of the Bauhaus.⁠ ⁠ Artists include: Rudolf Baschant, Herbert Bayer, Lyonel Feininger, Paul Häberer, Dörte Helm, Ludwig Hirschfeld-Mack, Wassily Kandinsky, Paul Klee, Gerhard Marcks, László Moholy-Nagy, Farkas Molnár, Oskar Schlemmer, Kurt Schmidt and Georg Teltscher.⁠ ⁠ Read more via linkinbio.⁠ ⁠ #bauhauspostcards #bauhaus #letterformarchive https://www.instagram.com/p/CZudnxmpvNT/?utm_medium=tumblr

"Looking at the Bauhaus’s letterforms across its short yet prolific 14 year trajectory—and tracking how its lessons traveled abroad with the emigration of its professors and students—ultimately offers an intimate portrait of the school. Unlike exhibitions that chart the Bauhaus’s approach to architecture or product design, singling out letterforms takes us to the heart of the school’s everyday reality. Just like contemporary art schools, you can tell a lot about the culture of the place through its hand-scrawled artworks, personalized birthday cards, and student-designed party posters. 'Tracing the typographic lineage provides a glimpse into the principles of the school, and its life more generally,' adds Henry Cole Smith [co-curator of the @letterformarchive much-anticipated Bauhaus Typography at 100 exhibition], “It reveals how the Bauhaus communicated about itself to others.”⁠ ⁠ Read this wonderful @madeleinemorleyy review of the exhibition and it's superb, forthcoming catalog, featuring foreword by Rob Saunders and Introduction by @ellenlupton via linkinbio at @aigaeyeondesign⁠ ⁠ #bauhaustypography #bauhaus #typography #graphicdesign #letterformarchive⁠ ⁠ https://www.instagram.com/p/CXl9e2NJsqM/?utm_medium=tumblr
