A big thank you to John at iLT (www.ilovetypography.com) for featuring my Illegible D&AD Fuse submission - Illegibility Typeface.

iLT is great site and well recommended to those who love all things Typographic and exceptionally useful for ‘beginners’.

So, iLT is designed to inspire its readers, to make people more aware of the typography that is around them. We really cannot escape typography; it’s everywhere: on road signs, shampoo bottles, toothpaste, and even on billboard posters, in books and magazines, online…the list is endless, and the possibilities equally so…

I’m from the UK, but now live in Japan. I view Japan as my home. I live in Kagawa prefecture, and am surrounded by rice fields and mountains — a long, long way from Tokyo. I know little about Japanese typography, but I’m studying it, and hope to include articles about typography in non-Latin alphabets in future…
