8 Faces
8 Faces, a new magazine from Elliot Jay Stocks that asks a few designers “If you could only use eight typefaces for the rest of your life, which would you choose?” I’m interviewed in this inaugural issue along with Erik Spiekermann, Jessica Hische, Ian Coyle, Jos Buivenga, Jon Tan, Bruce Willen & Nolen Strals. Print editions sold out fast, but PDFs are still available.
