mewithoutYou Set Lists

mewithoutYou - One of my favorite bands, great music, great lyrics, great shows. They also work with some pretty awesome designers and artists. I follow them on Twitter, and love seeing their hand drawn set lists they post for each show. Almost as diverse, dimensional and engaging as their own music, these set lists give new meaning to the quotidian objects, often lost or thrown away after shows.

There are dozens of examples on their Twitter account, but here are a few of my favorites.

Skills Wage

Love this new one from Friends of Type's Erik Marinovich! Texture can make or break a design and Erik's use of the torn paper backing for this custom lettering looks perfect - giving it a fun, vintage-gamey feel.

Well after a long blogging break for the holidays we are finally back with lots of great new hand made type. I think 2013 is going to be a year full of awesome custom typography!

Vintage Style Hand Lettering

Check out this beautiful hand lettering from BMD Design. The use of positive & negative space paired with the lettering and vintage textures  makes for a stunning composition. The typography maintains a fun, active feel while remaining classy.
