Friday randomness.

Here's some really inventive and beautiful numbers to admire... in a set of fonts by those amazing geniuses at H&FJ. (I've already raved about their font Archer here... oh it's amazing.)
Their descriptive copy for the font Indicia says it all:

Indicia, inspired by the numbers on hand-held rotary rubber stamps, evokes a vanishing world of written correspondence and flap-pocket library cards. The distinct style of these numbers is shaped both by the limitations of rubber as a medium, and by the considerable engineering challenges of creating forms that can withstand the physical pressure of repeated stamping.

Plus the forms are just simply lovely. Anything that reminds me of old-timey library cards is appealing! I rather miss that in the modern library experience. What I don't miss is paying hefty fines. I've managed to avoid it by doing the self-check, but I'm sure guilt will win me over in the end.

And on a totally different note,


I thought these little twins were so cute! I think that building is the twin of a playhouse my father built for my own little monozygotic nieces.

I guess that's it. I need to get ready for the day, if that is ever possible!
