Freshly Carved Pumpkin Typeface

by Jessica Kuhn for How Magazine Blog

One Kentucky-based advertising and branding agency combined their flair for creativity and love of Halloween to create a typeface carved from pumpkins. Intrinzic, the firm that brought this ghoulish typeface to life, carved each letter and character from slabs of ripe pumpkins, which were gathered from a family farm in the rolling hills of Kentucky.

In a true collaborative fashion, each employee created a letter of the alphabet for what they call Pumpkin Face. Check out the results below!

on my bucket list

Oh how I would LOVE to go to the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta — The World's Premier Balloon Event. It's held every year at the start of October. This year marked the 40th year. Check out some of this year's balloons...

In closing, the "Balloonist Prayer"...

May the winds welcome you with softness.
May the sun bless you with its warm hands.
May you fly so high and so well that God
joins you in laughter and sets you gently
back into the loving arms of Mother Earth.
