Braun logo evolution
The original Braun wordmark was designed by Will Münch in 1934.
This reversed option (below) came about in 1939.
“Wolfgang Schmittel joined the Braun design department as a freelancer in August of 1952. Upon his arrival, he revised the Braun logo and also gave it a reduced, constructively comprehensible form.”

ABChairs by Roeland Otten
Graphic designer Roeland Otten (who has a killer website btw) had an idea back when he was in school at Design Academy Eindhoven: to make communicative seating. Almost 10 years later, he’s finally fulfilled this dream with help from Fonds BKVB and Materiaalfonds. This prototype alphabet of chairs and stools consists of all 26 letters made from lacquered MDF. Right now, they’re being produced one-off as limited editions, but we hope he’ll find a manufacturer soon to make plastic versions.

Today we’re presenting a font named Code, and made by FontFabric. Author of amazings fonts, the author of those, is from Bulgaria. You can download it here.
