Do any of you fontaholics know
the font used for this headline?BTW: Supercool forum!
- stimuli0
The font was part of a brand new custom identity. Can't remember off-hand who designed it but I've got an article at home from either Graphic, Creative Review or IdN so I'll look it up when I get home.
The Whitechapel ID is beautiful though.

Me thinks it was hand drawn by someone at Spin
- JazX0
me thinks it custom made 2.

Yeah, it's beautiful.
Spin is a good guess but hopefully Stimuli will let us know tomorrow
Thanx a lot!

Someone hand Bunkum a biscuit, it was Spin. There was an article in the April 2003 edition of Creative Review.
About the typeface:
"The word 'Whitechapel' is the one element of the re-design that remains constant throughout. It is formed from said squares and triangles, which on first glance give it a robust appearance, although the web-like tracings of the shapes within, when closely studied, is delicate. A complete character set, based on this logo, will be used for promotional campaigns. Two other typefaces, Univers and Bubbledot, will also be used."

yeah I could see 'Univers'

http://www.daltonmaag.com/I use InterFace on Leftofsix. Probably the most beautifully hinted face ever!
PS. I'll be seriously updating Syncaio over the festive period and introducing a host of new ultra contemporary faces in January.

Haha just noticed! Thanks Jason. I wondered where my last two purchases came from ;)
Thanks everyone!
At the moment it's not worth more than £2. I'll be updating it over Christmas so the price will probably jump a little then.

ohh so you made some moola from that post. Wow I think I might have blasted you at Reinvigorate.net and also in the Public Broadcast next door, but I was pretty drunk last night. Cheers man ;)

Dirk's absolutely gorgeous SWISZ face at Fontomas still makes me foam.
I have every Fontomas face since he started the collection. Drop me an e-mail and I'd be delighted to hook you up. They are freeware after all.
PS. Been waiting for that compilation CD for years...
- Leftofsix0
Well not made that much. If you call £4 from two purchases a fortune then... and with those damned PayPal transaction fees sucking almost 25p from each transaction. Crazy!
