Lettering, fonts and text are all around us, in nearly every avenue of our lives, and we rarely give them a second glance. Every beautiful font we casually use has actually been a subject of days, weeks or months of work.
Tanya is one of those people who works hard to design a better looking textual landscape around us. Apart from her work designing fonts, she writes about type to spread the word and conducts type walks, explaining older styles of type in the real world. I had been waiting to speak with her since before I even had a podcast, so this interview is a story about a life in type.
