POGO
January 25, 2010 - By Bobby Solomon - Category: Design
POGO is a group of four creative folks from Argentina, creating beautiful work and designing amazing type. I came across their typography and was excited by how great it all was. They seem to have quite a knack for it, coming up with some really unique ideas.
I think my favorite of the bunch is the Zombienation one, which looks like it would be a title for an old grindhouse film. Although, Primavera is pretty cute as well. I love how it’s still a legible font even though they used so many abstract shapes to create it.
If you’re inspired to create your own fonts check out FontStruct which gives you the tools to get creative. I’ve tried using it before and it’s a lot harder to make a custom font than you’d think it’d be!

If you've got something to say, keep it positive.Is “departure” the font used by Yeasayer?
I think it is but I’m not sure… still I loved it when I saw it with on the bands myspace, glad to know where it comes from!
love that yellow font on the b/w photo- gorgeous
Thank you for sharing. Beautiful typos.
Hmmmm Music For An Accelerated Culture is an album title for a band called Hadouken, terrible stuff really. Zombie Nation, besides the film reference, is an amazing techno/house producer from Germany, my favourite album from him is Black Toys. Check it out, great stuff.
Really great type, love “I Can Freeze Time”.
