Aired February 18, 2017. Episode 203.

This week on Design Recharge I am excited to interview type designer and community builder, Thomas Jockin. Thomas began designing type and now has brought together type enthusiasts from coast to coast, he calls these get-togethers, Type Thursday. It is a place where honest, critiques happen, learning, and a love for type grows during each meeting.

This episode will explain the benefits of a group critique and all that goes into creating a community based on the love of type and letterforms. We will also talk about creating typefaces for different types users and how best to market that typeface.
