I’ve always liked this ominous photo of the men’s bathroom at a campsite somewhere in NSW, but had nowhere suitable to post it 🙂 (until now)

Sketching those symbols + multi-linguals ✏️

I just hit live on Lil’ Sketchies 🚀☺️ I’d love feedback before I do the offical launch! First person gets the illustration pack free with the code POSTS 🙏 https://sketchies.shop

‘Untitled desert font’ now has a name 🥳 the big reveal coming soon (most likely when the font is released)

Quite pleased with how Sticky Bold is coming along ☺️

Is bottom nav annoying? Should I move it to the top? I’m finding instinctively I zoot to the top to click nav links

Quite happy with how these mockups have come along so far 🤓

A little snippet of the ‘untitled desert font’ that is currently in the works. Any ideas on a name? 🌸

My new font is live 😍

I created 8 mock-ups to demonstrate unusual but effective font pairings specifically for messy handwritten fonts. You can see the article here: https://typeheist.co/blog/how-to-pair-messy-handwriting-fonts/ ☺️

I think I’m going to have fun with this font 🤓

Finally justified spending the money made by the side hustle to buy the thing that I create the side hustle on 🙃

I finally released this 😌 I use it to test my own handwriting fonts and wanted to make it available for others too: https://typeheist.co/template-guide/type-testing-template/

Sent a new project live this week ✨ if you’re getting married any time soon, Printle is a super simple platform that will create print-ready files for your stationery. We’ve started with place cards and escort cards and will build from there 😊 feedback welcome https://printle.co

It's liiiiveeeee: badtype.xyz 🎉  Had a few hiccups right before go-live but got there in the end. Let me know your thoughts :)

Made this little sticky sidebar to show the fonts mentioned in the article (on typeheist.co) 🙂

Happy Monday posts people 🥳 I’ve been trialling a new method for randomising characters with my latest WIP. Instead of ligatures this font uses contextual alternates, meaning if I have my way the alternate characters should change if there are two doubles in a row🤞🏼

Whoa 😮‍💨 two weights really extends the font creation timeline. It's been a journey and I'm happy to announce that Sticky is finally here! 

You can see it over at typeheist.co/font/sticky ☺️

Enjoying adorning the duck in my illustration pack with headwear 🥸

Editorial mockup ft. the fresh new Juniper Bay typeface update ☺️

Which product page layout do you prefer to use? 
A. carousel gallery at the top or 
B. semi-fixed vertical gallery?

Anyone else use the often frowned-upon 'slightly overlapping windows' window organisation method to design/dev? 😎

Celebrating messiness today 😌 ft. Manic font

Really going down the rabbit hole with this editorial style 📰 I’m really enjoying pairing messy handwritten fonts with clean cut, traditional serifs.

This combo is Pandemonium font and Libre Baskerville (a free Google Font) 🫶🏼

Politely pushing it with Figma prototypes again 🤓

Discovered my Lore font on Grandpa’s packaging 😮 has anyone seen this in person? I think it’s an American thing 👀

Enjoying creating these new thumbnail mockups for the new biro font 😍

Just another WIP 🚧 🙂 hoping to bang this out in under 2 weeks. Most likely very optimistic, but why not 😅

I've created a 'bad design advice' generator as a little side project to showcase my font. 

Feel free to share your terrible advice 🙃 It's in MVP stage so be kind 😅 https://typeheist.co/bad-design-advice/

Finished this little componentised data table system in Figma 👩🏻‍💻

Little snippet of a new app with some new UI 🤓

This font is the result of thousands of kilometres of bumpy road, and a new appreciation for ‘nothingness’ 🌵 typeheist.co

Just about ready to hit send on this new site. Let me know your thoughts 😊

Small sample of a new font in progress at Typeheist☺️

Type people! Whats your favourite letter to design? Mine is capital R 🙌 (please ignore the S, he needs help)

A little more from the desert 🏜️🙂
