This show is a little different than our previous shows. If you’ve been wondering why there hasn’t be an episode posted for a few weeks, it’s because Justin and Shawn have been travelling. Shawn went to Justin’s homeland and Justin went to Shawn’s. We thought it would be fun to share highlights, annoying aspects of culture, and our general impressions of art and design in each other’s homelands. Come with us on a walk and talk.

12 – “Homelands” with Justin Alm & Shawn Choi

For Episode 11, we chat with Ross Milne of Working Format. We discussed Mr. Milne’s experience studying type design in the Type and Media Masters program at The Royal Academy of Art in The Hague. We talk about the founding of Working Format, how they named the company, and their design mentality of, “let’s just do this”. We discussed the work Ross has done on the fonts Charlie, Publico, and Stag. We talked about the practice of font naming, font marketing, how people use fonts, Australia’s love for Ross’ work, and how fonts live in the software ecosystem. We talk about Working Format’s community oriented initiative The Platform Gallery and their ambition to get art and design into the everyday lives of Vancouverites. http://www.workingformat.com/ http://instagram.com/workingformat https://twitter.com/workingformat
