Codex—Journal of Typography

“For people seriously in love with type” comes a new quarterly print magazine named Codex. The first issue features the likes of Christian Schwartz and Paul Barnes, Paul Shaw, Stephen Coles and Erik Spiekermann.

Available to purchase for only US $27, lovingly designed by Working Format, the magazine explores historical and modern topics on the craft of typography, calligraphy, lettering, letters and text.

In the team’s own words:
Codex is a hybrid of magazine and journal. Beautifully designed, visually appealing, an immersive experience with a lively voice, it is also serious about its subject: authoritative, scholarly at times, but not dry in tone. It’s serious, but not stuffy. It loves the people, tools, and type associated with this craft, from the man carving beautiful cherubim into wood blocks in the 1400s to brilliantly formed modern interpretations and departures. It embraces the web and is watchful for the future’s classics.
