Typed Confessions

This is one of the post where you get to know a little bit more about me. The wall is down. I love typography. That’s all you are getting (and yes I love Caslon).

Delaware’s House Industries is an icon in modern typography. Their type faces and graphics work are known for their attention to detail and love for all-things design.  “What ultimately shines in the House Industries oeuvre is what always conquers mediocrity: a genuine love for their subject matter,” states their website – how can you not love them?

Well, you should. And now you can impress some neophytes at a cocktail party with your knowledge of modern typography. Just don’t pull that shit on me.

Christian has been a cultural and style junkie since the age of 6; while most kids were swiping cookies, he was swiping his grandfathers' Patek Philippe. Raised to appreciate art, fashion,design and  literature (yeah, this one actually reads) by a single mother fondly called Jackie-O. Christian quickly went from childhood cultural capital thief to academia protégé. Referred to as the cat's meow by some, too clever by half by others, Christian eschewed the academic life and ran away to join the circus -the fashion circus. Several well-appointed positions later and a career on the rise would be most people's dream but it was time to say fuck off and start all over again.

This is Christian Dare Unedited.
