I meet a lot of people when I'm out and about. I like that these girls coordinated their 'outfits.'

MK12 + CUSTOM TYPE + QUANTUM OF SOLACE

2009-02-09T07:02:26Z

SEXY BEAST.

A little over a month ago I received an e-mail from fellow Typophile Robert Farrelly. He alerted me to the fact that the new James Bond movie Quantum of Solace had some interesting typography – specifically the location cards that designated where the action was taking place. The choice of typography was adapted to the geographical location. When researching this the first people I stumbled upon were MK12. The self-proclaimed “full-service lateral hyperthreaded tactical design and research bureau” created the opening credits for the most recent James Bond movie. They also did a bit of R&D for the cards but were responsible for the creation of only the Port Au Prince, Haiti location title card out of the set.

FULL STORY

SIDE NOTE: The title cards for locations in the film were created by Tomato. Tomato is a collective of artists, designers, musicians and writers which was founded in 1991. I first became aware of them through their breathtaking visuals for one of their most visible projects: Underworld, the successful musical collaboration of Rick Smith and Karl Hyde.

“Life means to have something definite to do—a mission to fulfill—and in the measure in which we avoid setting our life to something, we make it empty. Human life, by its very nature, has to be dedicated to something.”

—Jose Ortega y Gasset (1883-1955); philosopher
