Just read the passage about the “bad” spacing on the tomb of Pope Francis. Is it a coincidence that similar “bad” or “amateur” design can be found--quite deliberately, I imagine—in early Christian catacombs?
Such an interesting topic, I loved your selection of examples.
It poked at something I had been thinking about this week, a 'type' of queer type, those found on album covers. It was the re-release of SOPHIE's Product EP, and her distinctive logotype that prompted this. It isn't surprising to me she selected Lÿno, which has four unique styles. Which, as the designers note, "resist normative tendencies and to reject the idea of definitive form".
