New from YWFT and Jackkrit Anantakul: Wonderland … When the borogoves were done getting mimsy, YWFT Wonderland had ended up with over 1500 letter designs! Don’t be late, late for this very important date with YWFT Wonderland: the most unorthodox font in the world.
From YWFT behance: If R. Crumb met Frank the Bunny for drinks, they’d each order one bourbon, one scotch, and one Wonderland. Very aptly-named font. Go ask Alice. In fact, when the borogoves were done getting mimsy, YWFT Wonderland had ended up with over 1500 letter designs! It’s similar to our handset YWFT Gavin (2010), but injected with two parts of Yout’ Juice. This thing will enliven any billboard, explode any poster, and blow any screen you put it on. Don’t be late, late for this very important date with YWFT Wonderland: the most unorthodox font in the world.
Bonus: Download free YWFT Wonderland Wallpapers, for iPhone, iPad and your Desktop.
