Clarity, personality, simplicity, warmth.
Author William Zinsser, in his 1976 book On Writing Well,
identified these as the four indispensable qualities of great
writing. Why indispensable? Because the best writing is
an expression of the writer’s humanity. These qualities
allow that humanity to shine through. As a writer, I find
Zinsser’s argument persuasive. ⁂ And as a typographer,
I find that his argument analogizes well to design. The
designer’s role is to take mundane items and fill them
with warmth and humanity. For instance, a font. What
is it, really? Just a set of tiny black shapes. Yet, as every
reader knows, those little shapes can express a huge range
of emotions and possibilities. ⁂ This contrast between
constraints and possibilities is what anchors my enduring
fascination with typography. Type possesses a strange
magic. One reason I embark on new type-design projects
is to understand that magic better. ⁂ Another reason
is to have some better fonts. concourse is my first
new sans serif design in nearly 20 years. Hopefully, I’ve
learned a few things. ⁂ Perhaps most important among
them is that drawing letters is the lowest form of type
design. The magic inhabits the spaces in between—on
the page, but also between us as readers & writers. Type
builds a bridge that spans time and space, that connects
us through the written word, that lets us share warmth
and humanity. There’s nothing else like it.  mb

t  he geometric sans serif typeface has been a staple of

the typographer’s toolkit for nearly a hundred years. The first in the
category was Erbar, the 1922 face that inspired dozens of others,
including the still ubiquitous Gill Sans and Futura. In the late 1920s,
Erbar also inspired American designer W. A. Dwiggins to create Metro.
