3D typography, the future of print media? If you say so McSweeny’s. The newest issue of the cult literary mag saw Ben Greenman introduce 3*TYPE, the magazine’s proprietary 3D typeface, as the “onrushing future”.

A New Evolutionary Stage for the Magazine

May 27th, 2009 · No Comments · Brands, Fashion, Techy
