The Netherlands based Fontstand introduced this week at TYPO Berlin – a Mac OS app that allows users to ‘test-drive’ a huge range of typefaces from international type foundries and independent designers free for one hour, or rent them for a month at 10% of the purchase price.

It all sounds rather nifty.

blackletter

British type designer, Illustrator and artist Seb Lester sez:

BlackLetter was used throughout Europe from about 1150 until the end of the 17th century. One of my current preoccupations is developing a set of modern BlackLetter capitals that are highly legible, in BlackLetter terms, and yet retain the richness and beauty inherent in this ancient category of letterform. From time to time I will film clips like this to record my progress.
