It’s my birthday today!
At 24, I thought I'd have it all figured out by now.
At 34, I've figured out that nobody has it figured out.
We're all just winging it and hoping for the best
Thank youuu! ♥️
Happiest birthday to you!

A beautiful archive for type lovers. The photography is incredible and has suuuch good quality!! A reminder that print has texture.

A digital archive of graphic design-related material sourced from the Internet Archive. Great for digging into historical references, books, posters...

Online Archive
Virtual access to Letterform Archive’s collection of lettering, typography, and graphic design.
Archives.Design is new to me, bookmarking that immediately. I lean on the Rijksmuseum print collection a lot for color studies, though I'd argue it's less useful for type. Does Letterform Archive get you close enough to actually see the print texture, or is it more curated photography?
