Whoop whoop @hulajuicebar no.2!
Having your opening hours sign written looks super smart and super sharp - even if I do say so myself 😂🤘

This is a late addition to my recent series on #HandpaintedType: The typeface that the letters on these Lisbon tiles were based on is Victorian, released in 1976 by Letraset. It was designed by Freda Sack (supervised by Colin Brignall). Freda Sack died two weeks ago.
Malta is full of handmade street name signs – but few count as #HandpaintedType, such as this one. My best guess: a blend of Helvetica and Arial. It is interesting that they carried over the slight squooshing of the letters from what must have been a mechanically produced model.
Some typefaces are indestructible – or ‘unverwüstlich’, as we say in German. Even in this fairly rough rendering, there can be no doubt about which typeface the letters were modelled on: Meta by @espiekermann – presumably the best-known sans with an open ‘g’. #HandpaintedType
Estro, Shmestro: Let’s get back to more popular #HandpaintedType. You know Broadway. But do you know ‘Broadway Waking Up After a Night on the Town’? That is how I would describe the look of these letters: still very much themselves, but not quite as sharp and composed as usual.
Compared to Gill and Times, this is a more obscure example of #HandpaintedType. All of the signage in the arena of Dax 🇫🇷 uses Estro, a 1961 typeface by Aldo Novarese. The handpainted rendering seen here is both lighter and wider than the cut on the mechanically produced signs.
I am not sure if the red letters are based on any typeface (loving the a’s, though), but the black cursive is clearly part of the project ‘Times New Roman drawn from memory’. As you see, the quality of the result is a function of one’s memory and drawing skills. #HandpaintedType
Welcome to a new week of letters! This week’s topic is #HandpaintedType, featuring handmade signs that are based on (well-known) typefaces. The transformation these typefaces undergo in the hands of signpainters is often interesting – or at least charming. First up: Gill Kayo.
Keeping it simple up in Aberdeen.
