07 01 2005: pretty officially welcomes milan today. we’ve actually been working with young milan for some time now. it’s a pleasure to finally be able to call him part of the family.

milan’s an astounding typographer and colorist. so far he’s lent a hand on a couple of gawker properties, jalopnik and oddjack—both of which feature custom typeforms he’s made—and radar. since we’ve promised not to dump him headfirst into the manhattan gossip whirlpool, you’ll see more from him elsewhere soon.
