Flyer designed by: Tom Cooper, Freelance designer.
Font used: ITC Chivalry
"This is the front of a two-sided flyer for a historic site in Derbyshire. In this case I wanted a single font to use as a display and body copy font which gave a medieval manuscript feel while still maintaining legibility at 11pt in the body copy. Hence I chose ITC Chivalry Standard."
Tom Cooper.

Book cover designed by: Richard Evans, Macmillan General Books
Font used: Typochondriac from TypeArt
"...for Lady killer I used Typochondriac as we didn't want to just have a straight condensed sans serif but wanted something slightly broken up. Also I think I had a few back pains that day so the title swung it"

Book cover designed by: Richard Evans, Macmillan General Books
Font used: Disorder Bold from TypeArt
"Out of a clear sky was a slightly more gentle psychological crime thriller and I was looking for something with slightly round edges and not a clean cut sans so went for 'Disorder bold"
