My life, my rules - since 1996

Hiya, I'm Fflur. 16 from Mid Wales - UK.
I love globes, funny pictures, trying new things (good and bad), family, best friends and my imagination. At times I can be extremely cocky but then I can be very quiet and shy. Loving me is hard but there's someone out there who's willing to love a fucked up person like me. I have autophobia and it destroys me most nights. But I keep smiling (: Need a chat? Just ask!

Happy Birthday Johnston and the London Underground

This week London sees the 150th anniversary of the London Underground. To commemorate the occasion a stream locomotive used in the 19th century made a journey through the modern tunnels of the Metropolitan line. See more on the BBC

It is also 100 years since its iconic typeface Johnston Sans was released as the the ‘Underground’ typeface. Dan Rhatigan, type director at Monotype and forthcoming interviewee of 8 Faces talks about Edward Johnston and the typeface here.  

The structured, based on a calligraphic nib held at a 45 degree angle, is emphasised by Johnston’s diamond tittles shapes (the dots over the i and j), one of it’s most recognisable characteristics.
