The Vincent Connare Interview

Vincent Connare interviewed on the Snog Blog. I’ve always cursed Comic Sans but never blamed its designer. What I indeed hate about Comic Sans is its misuse. It is used in contexts which just do not suit, like in calls for tender, in internal notes in companies, on menus in bars and restaurant both in Paris and Malahide, near Dublin, and that really irritates me.

And I’m happy to see – even though not quite surprised – that Vincent Connare thinks the same: he likes his work but it is all about use. Just the occasion for me to link to his website, which has a pretty unfortunate name if you speak French. And to his Magpie font.

  2. Quite right since it’s in the process of being set up right now. Sorry about that!

    And thanks for your blog which I like very much for its typography posts!
