OF COURSE my favorite parts is digging symbols in old catalogs, below a 100 years old Deberny & Peignot.

This period is particulary interesting as phones, cars, cameras are starting to appear in characters series. I don't know if someone has ever wrote something about technology symbols and their inevitable decline but this is a great topic in our interfaces today. Look at the phrygian cap proto emoji, cute. #typography #design #books #signs #symbol
