Hello hello!
Welcome to the 9th issue of Inspired By. I saw a lot of nice thing this week. Let’s get to it...

Recursive Sans & Mono
A highly flexible variable font for design, code, and UI.
🎩 Typographic Illusions
Did you see that episode on Typography of the Netflix documentary "Abstract: The Art of Design"? Remember those short lessons on optical illusions in Typeface design? Jonathan Hoefler published those and six additional lessons that didn’t make the cut.

🐋 Strokes & Dots
Ruben’s drawings are inspired by 19th century natural history illustrations. And are made of dots. A lot of dots.

🦔 Sonic the Hedgehog
A few months ago the internet freaked out about the way Sonic looked in the upcoming movie. So, they redesigned him! Check out the New Sonic in this new trailer:

Yup. Fonts have trailers now! Originally designed for Photo-Lettering in the mid-1960s by type legend, Ed Benguiat, House Industries has remastered the films into a robust font family ready to tackle any challenge you can throw at it.
