Buy Issue 4 PDFPrinted on heavy stock, with a foil-blocked cover, and pressed at just 2000 limited editions, each issue is a true collector’s item. 8 Faces will be more at home on your bookshelf than in your magazine rack. Who said print is dead?
The magazine has one core question at its heart — if you could only use eight typefaces for the rest of your life, which would you choose? — and poses this (and many others) to eight leading designers from the fields of web design, print design, illustration, and of course type design itself.
PLEASE NOTE: all orders for issue #4 placed before 8th December will ship in mid-December (this means UK and Europe orders will probably arrive before Christmas, but unfortunately we can’t guarantee it); all orders placed after then will ship in January.

Over the course of a year, we’re releasing eight A3 (297mm x 420mm) artwork prints, each one limited to 100 individually-numbered editions. Our second print has been designed by our very talented friend Jessica Hische. Her design builds upon David’s for print number one, using Skolar for body type in combination with her own inimitable style of lettering. It’s printed on coated 400gsm stock, UV varnished, and made even more special with orange foil blocking.
