Master & Master Socks
White for gallery openings, black for techno.
A new batch of Master & Master socks has arrived, created in collaboration with ferdinand. ponožky. Huge thanks for the great production!
When knitting typography, letterforms often hit the resolution limits of the machine. An automatic conversion to a fixed bitmap can easily distort the shapes, making them look messy. Big thanks to typographer Tomáš Brousil (Suitcase Type Foundry) – creator of our logo and the Icona typeface, which we use everywhere we can.
You can clearly see the difference in the attached image:
Top: The automatic version generated by the software.
Bottom: The hand-tuned bitmap by Tomáš, which allowed the logo to keep its true character even after knitting.
Some might call it a mild diagnosis; for us, it's a love for detail :)
