Then: beginning on the Ides of March and running through Saturday, March 17, Nadine Chahine leads “ Arabic Demystefied.” Both should be excellent - so act quickly! First is Cyrillic, from Friday, March 2, until Sunday, March 4, with Maxim Zhukov. That’s a lot of lovely Latin letters! We show other scripts when we can, but dabbling here won’t give you the same level of experience you’d likely get from one of the upcoming “Non-Latin Intensive” sessions from the TDC.

Also designed by Charles Gibbons, Rose pops out some serious period punch with a predominant footprint. Our final face of the day is Filmotype Rose, a deco-flavoured didone.

Charles Gibbons’s 1955 Filmotype Havana is a less nubby, more condensed version of the previously updated Filmotype Horizon. Next on the list is one of the first connected brush scripts available from the company.

This smooth monoline originally sprung from the pen of Ray Baker and as with all Filmotype rereleases, it has been tuned and expanded from the original film masters. First up is Filmotype Lucky - a spunky, casual script with a handwritten vibe. Finishing off a rather voluminous week of new type is a trifecta of mid-century revivals from the Filmotype collection.
