The creative chaps from South-SouthWest have managed to encapsulate the characteristics of the ‘Aussie Bloke’ in a typeface, and still create a really refined piece of design. Great work lads!

Making 18 typefaces work in harmony on one poster is no mean feat. Hats off to all city media for making it work so well.

Occasionally you will come accross somebody that truly enjoys the art of typographic expression. As if they were playing a musical instrument, they loose themselves to the journey – that is the infinate exploration of their art. Loose yourself in this brilliant journey.  And if you discover who was responsible for created it, please let me know.

They are a mysterious bunch, and I think thats why I admire them so much! Their recent work for The Sydney Theatre Company was the outstanding piece for me in their portfolio – which is all of a very high quality.
