Stylish Slab: Airbag Font

July 22, 2013

Airbag Font Sample via Happy Hands Project

Yep, I’m not into swirls and scripts all the time (though I absolutely adore them). I am also drawn to strong, slab fonts with a bit of testosterone. I’m sharing this font with you today because great fonts come with a great price tag – and this just ain’t one of them. I’m sure you’ve come across Trend? That hipster, layered font that comes in slab and sans serif? Here’s Airbag, its little brother!

It is designed by Simon Stratford and has a completely free version and a great alternative to one of the Trend formats. It’s an all-caps font with a layered look and will work best on your headlines and posters.  If you’re into clean, trendy slabs right now, you should download it here. You also have an option to purchase the entire font set for commercial use. For $4.00. I’m serious.

However, if you prefer the whole shebang, you can purchase Trend over at MyFonts here.

I was expecting sunflower yellow… 🌻    Instead, Su I was expecting sunflower yellow… 🌻 
 
Instead, Sunflower Fields surprised me with a warm amber that turns into a burnt-orange shade as it dries. It’s like an entire sunflower field under the late afternoon sun. 
 
It’s warm and earthy, and I can see that it’s perfect for autumn journal spreads, cozy letters, and sketchbook accents. I tried to paint a rose with it, too! 
 
Sometimes the best inks are the ones that don’t match our expectations.

If you’re visiting Tokyo for stationery, don’t ove If you’re visiting Tokyo for stationery, don’t overlook Loft Ikebukuro! ✨
 
While the Shibuya and Ginza branches are popular, I found the Ikebukuro location easier to browse because it felt less crowded during my visit. It also had a great selection of notebooks, pens, inks, and journaling supplies, so I never felt like I was compromising by skipping the busier stores. 
 
It’s four levels within the Seibu Department Store and is just beside the train station. There’s also a small cafe where my kids hung out, while my husband and I took turns shopping.  
 
If you only had time for one Loft, which would you choose?

✨ Kakimori Inks, first impressions! I finally got ✨ Kakimori Inks, first impressions!

I finally got to try the two inks I picked up from @kakimori_japan in Tokyo—Tototo, a rich deep magenta, and Harvest Gold, a warm golden mustard.

Both are beautifully saturated and flowed effortlessly with my glass pen from @auneda. Which one would you add to your collection? 💛💜

Practice has been non-existent lately, hence my uncial’s a little shaky. So I’m pairing this with some Michael Jackson to make up for it.  
 
Friday night means we get to order kebabs for dinner and afterwards I can sit and watch Netflix while eating a slice of sticky chocolate cake (which I learned is a Swedish recipe, and I made it myself).  
 
Yay weekend!
