IvyMazarin just launched. Mazarin was licensed by Stephenson Blake in 1926. Originally called Astrée and designed by Robert Girard. Published by Deberny &amp; Peignot in 1923.

Even within the same page in Mazarin there could be two or three versions of a letter. I liked many of the original quirks of the letterforms and am keeping some while changing others....

I have started to do ceramics with my wife. It is quite fun, but it seems like I can&#39;t let go of type design even when getting my hands dirty with clay.
