Pop-up with Comic Sans joke

betype

This newsletter pop-up from Betype made me laugh! I love it when humor is used in boring things like a pop-up, or an ‘Error’ page, or a ‘Terms & Conditions’ page. The graphic designers will probably get the joke. For the rest of you, I have to explain that ‘Comic Sans‘ is a font that everyone loves to hate! Most trained designers find it horrible, but at the same time you see it used everywhere, often inappropriately. The child-like handwriting font is so infamous, there is even a movement to try to ban it! Check out also Comic Sans Criminal, a ‘rehabilitation’ site that “helps people like you, learn to use Comic Sans appropriately”!!

Tabisso’s product range TYPOGRAPHIA is a unique collection of typographic lounge-chairs representing all letters from A-Z and numbers from 0-9, completed by a set of floor lamps with 25 punctuation marks.

I just saw these in a magazine and was wondering why didn’t anyone think of this before? The typographic lounge-chairs are probably too much for home decoration, but I find them a perfect touch for company lobbies or office space and showrooms.

In the other hand it would be fun for the girls to have 3 chairs with their initials: C, M & D. And an asterisk lamp would not be bad either.

I just discovered  Martin O’Neill, a London-based illustrator & artist who creates beautiful collages for publishing, advertising, design & installation work.

In order to create his images he combines collage, silkscreen, photography, paint, and digital techniques. I especially love his type collages, there is so much going on, I wish I had larger photos of his work to be able to see the detail.

More lovely work on his website called appropriately “Cut it out
