Hosted by @WSJ, the Journal House identity leverages their existing typographic forms and extends them into a full visual language. The custom type family, Journal Masthead by @mckltype, builds from the exact letterforms and kerning found in the iconic @wsj identity.

Today on Brand New (Linked): For a new campaign, McCann enlisted @mckltype to design a custom type family for @tjmaxx, based on the retailer’s logo in order to replace the previous use of Helvetica. https://t.co/2lQVNmX61T

[Co.Design @FastCoDesign]

Who needs Helvetica? T.J. Maxx ditches the iconic font in for its own custom type. https://t.co/mJyJcMQADr

@rsms @ArrowType @calderon_type I was drawing in Robofont and using FDK to produce final files. I noticed that italic TTFs had glyphs jumping around, on characters like ‘u’ that didn’t have left extrema.

@R_Typography Value Serif by @colophonfoundry

[MCKL @mckltype]

@rsms @ArrowType @calderon_type In my tests it was hinting independent.

[MCKL @mckltype]

@ArrowType @calderon_type Not having the left extrema can cause problems with TTF, the glyph can randomly shift in position. Learned that one the hard way!
