The 2005 FontFont Calendar



I just caught this link on the FontShop website, and I gotta say its pretty awesome to see two of my previous professional associates (and friends) were invited to participate, Erik Spiekermann and Joachim Müller-Lancé.

Erik is of course the founder of MetaDesign and creator of the Meta typface. Joachim is founder of TypeBox and a multilingual type designer (designing fonts for both Japanese and Roman character sets).
Introducing The 2005 FontFont Calendar. The FontFont culture has always been about great designers making great type. This time we asked those creators to play with their work. Each month was a canvas for the world’s best type designers to paint with their FontFonts. As the pieces began to stream back from our all-star lineup, we grinned a happy holiday grin — the results are stunning.

Not that they need any more publicity or online fame, but its cool to see them keep the work coming.
