Hopefully you’ve seen our previous post—we’ve been acquired! By…us 😂 . We won’t be posting here anymore, but we hope you’ll join us @simplebits for all the same, mediocre type and design content and so much more. 🧡

Psst: We just released new Rough styles for Parkly, our typeface inspired by vintage, WPA National Parks posters. It comes in 3 widths and it’s fun to mix those up for a wood type-y vibe. All-caps, numerals, basic punctuation. 6 styles included! simpletype.co/products/parkl…

There are certain movies where—when I randomly land on one flipping through cable (yeah I still have cable)—I *have* to watch the rest of it. Regardless of when it started and how much is left. I must, and that time is spoken for. What are yours?

With the exception of “Panama”, a list of 70s songs that may or may not be about the outdoors and nature. #parklyfont

It’s almost Spring here in New England. We’re very much looking forward to all things salt water. On it, in it, around it. It’s (always been) a long winter. #shipswhistlefont

I don’t drink soda anymore, but I was reminiscing about the lost sodas of my childhood. Some of these might still exist? The last one isn’t a brand but I remember drinking it when I was 8 & thinking it was exotic & weird but it’s just fancy root beer #cartridgefont @simpletypeco

Our newly-updated monoline typeface, Ships Whistle, now has Italic and Rough styles. Plus swashy, italic, alternate caps. It was inspired by a Martha’s Vineyard ferry sign with a quirky ST ligature. simpletype.co/products/ships…

My favorite movie of all time is _still_ The Goonies. Without question, folks. And it’s been heartwarming to see Ke Huy Quan’s comeback this year. He might be my favorite Goonie. Who’s yours? I hear Chunk is now a successful lawyer? #shipswhistlefont

Testing the forthcoming Ships Whistle styles (Italic, Rough, swashy italic caps). If you like Ted Lasso, give Shrinking a watch. Outstanding cast, great writing, hilarious, etc.

Sneaking some swashy alternate caps in the forthcoming Italic and Rough styles for #shipswhistlefont Bonus points if you can name the artist who’s song is in this list.

Have always loved big band music from the 1940’s. Top band for me is Count Basie. Catch the right recording, and there’s this bombastic attack the band would hit on (Check out Corner Pocket). It’s the punk rock of the swing era. #grandsansfont simpletype.co/products/grand…

I love this old rallying cry of the U.S. Navy, but applied to everyday battles like flossing, carb-counting, or mediocre streaming shows. #shipswhistlefont Rough and Italic styles coming to Ships Whistle soon. simpletype.co/products/ships…
