Yay! Congratulations, Mark! I’ve known you since the Typophile days, and seeing that spinning starburst back makes my type nerd heart so happy. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go play with every font on the site.
My website has a new look! It brings back some of the spirit of my original site. It already feels like home to me. Thanks to Scott Kellum, Kelsey Scherer, and Roel Nieskens. Visit marksimonson.com today. While there, you can find the Notebook entry about the update.

IvyMazarin just got Big[ger]. And it has a variable option. And the italics are even better. If that is possible.*
*Apparently so.

Instead of asking yourself why you’re so lazy, ask yourself why you might need so much rest.

As I was trying to figure out a way to showcase ATF Super Condensed I realized nothing I could do would really do it justice. Everyone sees fonts differently. But we all love big type. #amirite
Sometimes it’s fun just to see big type, right?!
When you need impact in a tight space, ATF Super Condensed gives you 42 fonts to try: six widths, from Compressed to Wide, and seven weights, from Hairline to Black.

When you mistype a word but make a fancier word that’s a typeau.

Partiche, at first glance, is quirky. But after spending some time with it I got a real sense of how it might be used in monumental ways too.
A new expressive sans with a calligrapher’s eye designed by Richard Lipton for Lipton Letter Design. It pairs Seymour Chwast’s playful graphic sensibility and Richard Lipton’s sculptural detailing.

Formatting images to be posted on social media channels feels very much like herding cats: a total waste of time.

The older I get, the more I treat my energy like a budget instead of an unlimited resource. Every "yes" is a withdrawal.

Some things are just meant to be, #amirite? Congratulations, Mark!
Fifty years in the making! What began as a college type design project in 1976 has become Neotype—a retro-futuristic display family blending the influence of uncial script with 1970s geometric sans serif design.
