Typeface the Music and Dance

Lucida Sky with Diamonds. Bauhaus (in the Middle of Our Street). Rock the Caslon. I Wanna Bold Your Sans. Nope, this isn’t the set list from designer/rock star Chip Kidd‘s latest Artbreak gig, they’re fontsongs, a Twitter thread (#fontsongs) that challenges pun-loving design types to insert typeface names into popular song titles. Call it Textual Healing. The typographical phenomenon is going strong with recent gems such as Goudy My Dreams, Get into my Car and Garamond (My Wayward Son), but don’t delay in tweeting a fontsong of your own today, before the trend changes cultural course.
