Initially I was turned off by this book’s design, but once you get over the ironic-generic cover and the monospaced body copy (c’mon, when will these fads end?) it’s really a nice selection of work and content, and a fitting snapshot of the current type design scene.
In October 2020, RH Inter has been released with Lineto as LL Medium.
