Lifehacker posted some nice photos of the Moleskine office in Milan and a new one in New York. Very nice. Perhaps after they’ve settled into their New York office, they could consider a new approach to the choice of type for their datebooks… The use of Rotis has had a good run. To be honest, it kind of feels like I’m writing in Ozzy Osbourne’s spell book. A more neutral face would do wonders for the experience.

This face has roots in Didot, but with a hint of plastic surgery gone wrong. Anna Malsberger describes it best: “They tease us with allusions to peacocks, mustaches, umbrellas and feathers. They blossom, heave, and knock each other around. They are a glorious parade of grotesque enthusiasts.”

Cumulus & Foam comes from Stefán Kjartansson, designer of Black Slabbath, Armchair Modern, and Reykjavík. It’s a family of three typefaces: Cumulus & Foam & Vane, Cumulus & Foam & Crumpet, and Cumulus & Foam & Naugahyde. Watch for it to be released this month through You Work For Them.
