The inside cover and front page of Gun Magic Techno Pop. The inside cover reads "It's 1999 and time is speeding up," with the 'p' in arc being looped endlessly, getting skinnier and skinnier, as if the word were being squeezed into a high-pitch electronic note. The other page is a lengthy book introduction.

A later spread from Gun Magic Techno Pop. On the left-hand page is an overview of how characters work in the game, with a diagram of the character sheet itself. On the right-hand page is a character sheet for the Mundane Mage. The character description reads "Make the trains run on time."

I'm laying out Gun Magic Techno Pop in Focal and it's such a blast to work with. I wish phototypesetting had still been in use when I began my career, I would have eaten that shit up. Focal designed by @greggazdowicz.bsky.social, available from @commercialtype.bsky.social

🙏 Glad to hear you like working with it!!

The phrase “Earth Trip” set in Greg Gazdowicz’s Focal Maxi (top) and Focal (bottom). Available from Commercial Type.

There are certain visual motifs we keep coming back to. Stencils are great. We never get tired of swashes. And we love soft letterforms. (Caslon Ionic Rounded Light)

Softness adds warmth and charm. (Caslon Ionic Rounded Extrabold)

Greg Gazdowicz has spent the last few years exploring various aspects of softness in type: in contrast with sharpness, in Terza; as an artefact of production processes, in Focal; and now the transformative properties of softness when applied to a historical genre — the Ionic — known for its solidity. (Caslon Ionic Rounded Medium Italic)
