Summer

Summer has begun and I’ve realized I haven’t made a post in a long time. Over a month I believe it’s been. But I’ll tell you why. I have good reason I promise…

First of all, if you’ve been here before you probably know that I run a clothing company called Turn Nocturnal. Well, what started from one shirt about beards has turned into multiple designs and orders from all over the world. We’ve now got 9 products on the store, a lot geared towards fellow design nerds. So check those out

Secondly, I’ve been working on WuChess.com. WuChess is a collaboration between RZA of...more

A Brief Update

It’s been a little while since the last post. Life has been incredibly busy. That’s a good thing though. Design, design, design. That’s how I like it.

You may not find older tumblr themes I’ve created in there because they were created for older versions of tumblr, and don’t support all the new features.

If you think I’ve missed anything, something I’ve written about in the blog or I’ve posted on tumbl.us, feel free to...more

Serifs on the Web

It’s been a little while since I’ve uploaded to the /demo folder, but the more and more I see beautiful serif type around the web, the more and more I feel like I have to play with it. And if you haven’t seen any beautiful serif web typography recently, check out Seed Conference or Twisted Intellect.

But here’s my little serif demo. My idea is this: If you can make a flexible layout, you’ve always got Georgia or Times New Roman to fall back on. Why not try some new Serifs? The problem of course is that most PCs aren’t going to have...more
