A little WIP Wednesday Warmup with Spagetty today. With apologies and homage to my beloved Veer (RIP) Serif cap I wore probably 20 years ago 🤓

Work continues on Kyroh. Movies set in Egypt? I haven’t seen all of these, and I’m sure I’m missing some obvious ones. Haven’t kerned this one yet in case that’s not obvious! ;)

Putting on some Buddy Rich from 1976 and busting out the handy tee folder this morning. Thanks for your orders so far ✌️✨

I like to make physical goods that feature our non-physical typefaces. Sometimes we put those goods on sale. Today is one of those days. It’s not a special day. But it’s a day where everything is 35% off. Just use code SPECIAL at checkout for a discount on our tees, hats, decals, books, dice games, and other very unimportant things for the next week.

No one will ever see this post because of the description above, but ah well 😎

Random movie titles set in our brand new Beeswacks typeface. Available now!

04/21/2026

Today, we’re announcing the official release of our latest typeface, Beeswacks! A vintage-esque, display sans-serif based on a handful of letters found on an old box of candles made by Columbia Wax Works in New York.

We took those capital letters as guidance in filling out a whole alphabet that retains the worn, hand-painted vibes from the candle box. Beeswacks will be fantastic for logos, posters, signage, branding, etc.

Beeswacks comes in a single weight and includes upper & lowercase letters, numerals, punctuation, diacritics with expanded language support, as well as some alternate character icons and script-y, discretionary ligatures for the words the, of, in, at, and, for.

Available now, individually, or join our Secret Club™ and get ALL of our fonts + other perks ✌️🤓✨

Does it really matter anymore? I hope so. But regardless, a new human-made font is coming shortly.
