Jubilat!

Darden Studio has relaunched its website and released Jubilat, a fabulous slab serif. We’ve been beta-testing Jubilat all year; it’s my principal typeface for An Event Apart in 2008. (Last year’s principal An Event Apart typeface was Darden Studio’s Freight Sans.) New to Joshua Darden’s work? Try Birra Stout, a free font.

    excellent choices. (oh, and it’s “principal”, not “principle”)

    Mmm. I’ve been hooked on Archer… but this could be my new crush. <3

    Interesting. At AEA SF this week, I used Jubilat, Veen used Gotham, and almost every other presenter used Archer.

    You’ve probably seen them before – the fonts from Jos Buivenga?

    Jubilat’s lighter weights reminded me a bit of Buivenga’sMuseo…

    Did anybody else misread the title of the post as Jailbait? Just me? Dang.
