Are you scrolling through filthy windows looking at the same old faces? Are your serifs creeping like mold? Eleven new display fonts from House Industries of Wilmington, Delaware, make you wonder if your font folder needs some Housework. Have no fear, this set is enough to remove that stubborn waxy build-up off any logo, corporate identity, or publication you might have on the ironing board. Just type, then shine!
Houseparty, Housebroken, Housefly, Halfwayhouse, Phathouse, and Housepaint comprise a variety of faces in weight and style, including serif and sans serif. My personal faves: Rougfhouse - the fear and loathing font; Funhouse - which would do Pee Wee proud; and Warehouse - the industrial stencil font.
At the head of aisle 9, this week's special, the House type set is a steal at US$150 for all eleven, or $25 a face. And hey! No shoplifting allowed! If you've ever spent hours, days, or years shining up a typeface, you'll know what I mean. All it takes is one friendly pal...and then someone's got your font in their suitcase and ten people are taking a vacation in it!
