Dove Industry

New company Dove Industry recently approached Tell to help in the development of their brand.

Specialising high quality door hardware, they required a brand that capitalised on the professional reputation of its founder, Michael Dove, while appealing to the primary audience of architects.

Mimicking blinds and doors, Tell's logo solution uses cropped letters to create depth, resulting in a modern, monolithic brand.

Sarcastic Font

by Gary Schmidt

Ever gotten an e-mail or SMS, and haven't been sure if you should be reading between the lines? We use bold, italic, and all capitals means SHOUTING! There's even been an irony mark since the 19th century, but what about the subtlety of sarcasm? Glenn McAnally wants to do something about it with his sarcasm variant for typefaces.

The Actual Cost of the 12 Days of Christmas

by Damian Gibson

How much does true love really cost? According to the Christmas Price Index US$21,465.56.

In the Christmas carol, 'The 12 Days of Christmas,' a series of gifts are given by a true love, from 12 drummers drumming to a partridge in a pear tree - in reality the cost of all this is quite pricey.

Since 1984, PNC Financial has calculated the real-world cost of the gifts given in the song at today's prices.
