So today was not like any other day at work. The 50th birthday for Helvetica has spurred lots of interest in type and typography and it seems that we have finally migrated ino mainstream news.

The article talks about Helvetica and today it made headline news on the BBC News website which is a pioneering and very well respected news source. It is wonderful that Helvetica gets this coverage, but I’m also quite thrilled as I was interviewed for this piece and am quoted in it. This is super cool, especially that BBC is my main news source. It’s like being called to the mothership…
The article is also on the most emailed list. Could it be that the public is getting to be more aware about type design and the importance of type in our lives? Fingers crossed…
Mabroooook Nadine, i’m so glad to hear that..
