I’m a big fan of the type folks at Adobe (nothing against the non-type folks, I just don’t know many of them, I’m sure they’re plenty nice as well), and I’ve been quite vocal about it.
One of the reasons that I’ve been so impressed with them lately is the... Continue Reading.
We have a load of new camps coming up in the autumn. They’ll be announced by 1 June or 1 July so stay tuned!
While in the Bay Area in March running the 6 (!) camps over 10 days, there were a few other things that I noticed that don’t quite make it into my camp posts, some typographic, some feline, and some neither. Here I have lettering from around Potrero Hill, Madam Flo... Continue Reading.
My favourite camp of 2014 was not India or Galiano or even Facebook or AdobeMax, although I loved them all (really!). The one that will stay with me for years to come was our short workshop with the 4th & 5th graders at the Montessori school in Regina, Saskatchewan.

The morning was dedicated to... Continue Reading.
I’ve recently partnered with Adobe Type on a few things, mainly the upcoming scholarship to Type Camp India. I’ve been looking for a place to write about typography, but more little tidbits of history along with practical use tips, and I’ve found it with the Adobe Type Blog. There will... Continue Reading.
It is with great pride (and slightly bleary eyes) that I can announce Web Type West, Type Camp’s first ever conference! For those of you that have known me for a while, you know that I’ve been creating conferences for nearly 15 years. I’ve jumped back into it primarily because... Continue Reading.
I’m a sucker for thank you cards. Well, not really official thank you cards, but little notes or messages that former campers send my way regarding their time at a Type Camp. Recently, Natalie Tan, wrote about her experience on her new blog.
It was wonderful to read what was... Continue Reading.
