Just discovered wordle, a typographic word cloud generator that allows you to create a custom type graphic extracted from the rss feed of any website or from any set of words or sentences that you type. What I really love about this application is the ability to tweak the layout to create various color schemes, fonts, horizontal/vertical type..etc. It’s can definitely be addicting. You also have the option to add your creation to the wordle gallery. The one I created above is generated from katize.com. And the one below, I created (very appropriately) from one of my favorite websites, ilovetypography.

Available very soon will be the limited edition T-shirts I designed for Deeper Shades of House, my husband Lars Behrenroth’s radio show and website. Deeper Shades of House (DSOH) is entering its 5th year on XM satellite radio and is now syndicated on numerous other FM and online stations globally. It’s very fulfilling to know that so many people worldwide have become devoted fans of the show and tune in weekly or download the DSOH podcast. Lars has put a lot of hard work and creative energy into his show and music, and has always remained humble and appreciative to his fans.
These premiere DSOH t-shirts will be limited edition as we have printed a very limited number of them. And, because they are printed with a unique technique called discharge printing. It’s not really a print, but more a process where the color of the shirt is extracted to create the design, similar to bleaching.
I’ll post another update here as soon as they are available for purchase, which should be as early as next week.
A hand drawn typographic series of works by ill studio, a French collective of creative collaborators “devoted to the fine arts”. Their goal is to bring ten individuals together, working in various artistic areas such as graphic design, photography, typography, illustration, video, motion design, etc.
The studio provides an environment wherein its member’s complementary influences meet, and contribute to the stimulation and development of the whole, whether the works produced are created collectively, or individually.

Variations of the letter M and other Metro logos of the world.
Most metros have logos or symbols to mark their station entrances, rolling stock, and printed matter such as maps or tickets. Since most metros around the world are indeed called ‘metros’ (only few are called subway, underground, U-Bahn, T-bana or something else), many metro logos are more or less fancy variations of the letter M.
