Let’s be clear, we are fully committed to our work, and our partners… but we can’t help it. Sometimes a creative comes along that picks us up off our feet and we find ourselves with an artistic crush or two. Here are a few examples of work we love and instagram accounts you shouldn’t miss.…

After years of searching the web for free fonts, not-so-legal font downloads (with or without questionable names and questionable download sites), and splurging on the ones you just can’t do a project without — we’ve finally discovered the world of Google Fonts.

It’s no secret we are big fans of the KOVAL brand. Our friends at Cushing have completed projects for their team and their striking labels were always the talk of the production floor. As we brainstormed who reach out to for the next Coffee Convo, we hoped they would consider participating.

It’s ok to admit that the first thing you notice about this picture is the grilled cheese – how could you not?! BUT, for some crazy font loving folks (us), the first thing we noticed was the font. Does that look familiar at all to you? Well guess what all you font lovers, this heading is the empowered and statuesque ‘Paralucent Bold’ – and it’s our font. Yep, our font of choice in almost all things, and used most appropriately all over this website. Thrillist, you certainly have great taste and we love you, now for even more than your best grilled cheese in the city recommendations.
