Ngoc — Wed, 27 Jan 2010 10:47:54 +0000

Type designers, graphic designers and other artists from around the world are invited to contribute artwork to be included in a typeface created exclusively for the Font Aid IV effort. The theme of Font Aid IV is Coming Together which will be represent through a font consisting entirely of ampersands. Coming Together will be made available for sale through several type distributors, with all proceeds going to Doctors Without Borders. SOTA, a US-based non-profit, is acting as a non-partisan organizing body to help coordinate the effort and ensure all funds are distributed appropriately. Everyone is encouraged to help the cause by spreading the word to friends and colleagues. Read more about this and SOTA’s past efforts here.

Included in the typeface is this ampersand I designed:

UPDATE: The typeface is now available for purchase through Veer, Ascender Fonts, FontShop and MyFonts.

If you think you have a good one, post it in a comment!
