Nothin' like a book titled "Hand Job" to round out a lovely Friday like today. It includes the hand-drawn typographical creations of fifty designers selected by graphic designer and hand typographer Michael Perry.
Each hand-drawn work is entirely shaped by the artist's unique process--every one a carefully executed composition enhanced by unplanned "accidents" of line, color, and craft. Hand Job also includes photographs of found type, artists studios, and the tools that help make typography come to life. Whether you are looking to invigorate your design work or are just in need of a little offbeat inspiration, Hand Job will have you reaching for your favorite pen.
In the same vein, it's a welcome breather to see some good old fashioned hand-drawn sketches in today's glossy computer rendering world. Don't lose sight of your hand jobs, people!
