circumpunktdesign:

The best design is one that doesn’t look designed. This flawless type specimen shows all the elegant qualities of Centaur and little else, leaving the eye to explore every serif and ligature without interruption.

“The purpose of the poster is to showcase beautiful historic typefaces. Designed by Jim Williams, an award winning typographer and graphic designer who has a lifelong passion for the craft of typography and letterforms. He also has a keen interest and understanding of letterpress printing. Jim’s knowledge of typography and attention to detail is second to none. Constantly ‘tweaking’ his work until it is just perfect, kerning here, letterspacing there, a real perfectionist.”

Based in Bristol, Jim wanted to combine his love of music and design into one crowd-pleasing project. He’s certainly hit the nail on the head with these brilliant typeface designs for his favorite bands which include Grizzly Bear, Jack White and Hot Chip. This is an ongoing project and Jim will continue to post up the rest of the music-related alphabet over on his Facebook page.
