Elliot sits down for a cup of tea at Erik Spiekermann’s house in London to discuss his successes and failures, his latest typeface neue Serie57®, the relationship between paper and screen, and why Frutiger could very well be the typeface Erik takes to a desert island. Warning: lots of swearing!

Special plug: Elliot’s new book, Universal Principles of Typography, is out now and available from anywhere that sells books. You can find a few handy links to buy it on elliotjaystocks.com/book

You might also enjoy Elliot’s newsletter Typographic & Sporadic, which is typographic in its nature and sporadic in its delivery.
