Who says medieval illuminators can't have dark mode?

[Toshi Omagari @Tosche_E]

Found my Quentin Blake typeface in a children’s book. It’s great to see it in use even though only the ligatures are used (random alternates are disabled).

Oh hello again back pain, it’s been a while.

[Toshi Omagari @Tosche_E]

@MarioBreskic I see, it seems to be a very German and typography-oriented setup. Very nice!

[Toshi Omagari @Tosche_E]

@MarioBreskic Here’s mine if you’re interested

[Toshi Omagari @Tosche_E]

@MarioBreskic Cool, you made custom keycaps! What was your issue?

[Toshi Omagari @Tosche_E]

The art book showcases their research on mediaeval manuscripts, various sketches on characters, UI, etc., and my typeface.

[Toshi Omagari @Tosche_E]

I’ve got super cool merch from @YazaGames for whom I’ve made the custom blackletter typeface. I have kept my current laptop clean, but these stickers are so tempting :)

@techsavvytravvy @keyladelslay @IroncladDev Faint-hearted designer wouldn’t take on a typeface project like this, and hate is part of its fascinating discourse!

[I Love Typography @ilovetypography]

We’re thrilled to offer a new course focused specifically on the Ruqaa style. This Arabic handwriting style is very common and yet underrepresented in typographic form. Let’s change that!

The course, starting June 5, will be led by @Tosche_E with support by @arabictype.

[Toshi Omagari @Tosche_E]

@NiceDay42 @techsavvytravvy It’s when you read it that fonts matter :)

[Nadine Chahine 🇱🇧 @arabictype]

I'm going to be a student again! For real, I've only half started a Ruqaa typeface once and don't know enough about the style. This course will be great!!

Come study with @Tosche_E, this is going to be loads of fun 😃

This use of variable font in branding by FreeNow is delightful to see mainly because I don’t know enough cases. Is there more example? https://t.co/tLpdiAzjMx
